Japanese Knife Thickness Measurement Diagram

  

* Semi-stainless steel requires some care to prevent surface rust, although somewhat less than full carbon steel.  

* These knives are on the thinner side - whilst their performance is approaching top level, misuse will cause chipping.

Japanese Kitchen Knife | Gyuto (Chef Knife)

The Gyuto, or Japanese chef knife, is widely considered to be the most versatile kitchen knife for both professional chefs & home cooks alike.
With a variety of sizes and shapes available, generally the Gyuto is similar to western style chef knives in shape, however thinner, lighter, made of harder steel and retains a sharper edge. They consist of a flat mid-heel section for chopping, a curve towards the tip for rock cutting and a pointed tip for precision work.
If you are going to purchase just 1 good knife, the Gyuto (or perhaps the similar Santoku) would absolutely be the knife to choose.

    Godammit, ProTooling are the best.
