OUL
Ginsan Damascus Nawame Gyuto 210mm Black Oak
OUL: Based in Sakai, renowned for their precision engineering, OUL produces exceptionally balanced knives that fuse traditional Japanese craftsmanship with dependable modern performance.
Gyuto: The Japanese interpretation of the traditional Western chef’s knife. Featuring a long, gently curved blade, it rocks smoothly across the cutting board, making it your ultimate general-purpose tool for meats, fish, and vegetable produce. Only 154 grams with a slender 2 mm spine, this knife feels weightless in the hand.
Damascus/Nawame: A striking Japanese blade style featuring a distinctive, rope-textured (nawame) pattern forged across Damascus steel.
Ginsan: A premium stainless steel loved by chefs because it sharpens as easily as traditional carbon steel, yet requires minimal upkeep.
Care & Maintenance
- Hand-wash with mild soap; dry immediately.
- Cut on wood or plastic; avoid stone and glass.
- Use a magnetic strip, sheath, or knife roll to store your knife.
- Carbon steel darkens over time and will develop a patina after use.
