This 240mm gyuto profile serves general-purpose kitchen tasks including mincing, slicing vegetables, and cutting meat. The blade features sanmai construction with a V-Toku 2 carbon steel core and stainless Damascus cladding, providing the cutting characteristics of carbon steel while the outer layers resist corrosion. Despite the stainless clad, the exposed carbon core remains prone to rust and requires drying after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eV-Toku 2 is an alloy carbon steel manufactured by Takefu Special Steel that reaches 62-64 HRC, offering improved wear resistance through vanadium addition. This hardness allows the blade to be ground thin behind the edge for effective slicing performance. The knife measures 245mm in edge length, 50mm in heel height, and tapers from 2.3mm at the spine heel to 1.1mm at the tip, weighing 204g. It pairs with an octagonal WA handle made from acrylic with a ferrule incorporating thimble and gold flake elements to mimic traditional Japanese WA paper aesthetics. The etched surface finish displays the rainbow Damascus pattern across the blade face.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hatsukokoro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46768902144221,"sku":"HATS-VT2KJK-GY240-GRN","price":370000.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/HatsukokoroKujakuV-Toku-2Gyuto210mmRainbowDamascusFinishGreena_140c3907-74e1-4e32-af0a-16aaed055070.jpg?v=1757656919","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.co.kr\/en\/products\/hatsukokoro-kujaku-v-toku-2-gyuto-240mm-rainbow-damascus-finish-purple-copy","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
