White #2 Tsuchime Gyuto 180mm Keyaki Handle
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 vegetables.
Tsuchime: A classic hammered finish that creates organic, dimpled facets along the steel. These shallow indentations reduce surface drag so ingredients release smoothly off the blade while cutting.
White #1 & #2 (Shirogami): The purest traditional carbon steels. They take an outrageously sharp, glass-like edge on whetstones, but require attentive care.
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.
