20cm All Rounder
£310.00
Why choose this knife
The knife we send to well-known chefs who just say send me something: a Japanese-influenced all-rounder with a gentler rock than our European chef’s knives, which means less elbow movement and a more fluid, forgiving motion on the board.
Dimensions
Blade 20.2cm. Overall 33cm. Depth 4.5cm. Weight 176g.
The Story
The blade profile is inspired by the Japanese knife of the same name, and the Gyuto is one of our most original designs. It sits a little bigger than the Classic and Classic Ultra, but the rock is finer, which makes it feel more graceful on the board rather than simply larger. We have always thought of it as the knife for people who like the idea of rocking but are not naturally inclined toward it, because it gets out of the way and lets the motion happen without requiring commitment.
Performance
CATRA – the global authority on cutlery performance – rank our knives in the top 2.5% of all blades ever assessed for initial sharpness and edge retention. The Gyuto is hardened in-house to 60 HRC using a nitrogen atmosphere process, taking the steel from 1080°C to -75°C in a controlled cycle that maximises carbide formation, edge stability and corrosion resistance. The blade is ground to a unique concave profile – a geometry that reduces drag and improves slicing performance without sacrificing rigidity. Each knife is sharpened to 15 degrees per side.
