Made by Nigara in Aomori, this double bevel gyuto features an SLD steel core at 62-64 HRC within a san-mai stainless damascus clad construction finished in kurouchi. The blade measures 230mm along the edge with a 50mm heel height and spine thickness of 3.3mm at the heel, tapering to 1.2mm at the tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSLD tool steel offers high edge retention through hard carbides formed by molybdenum and vanadium, while its chromium content provides near-stainless performance that requires less maintenance than carbon steel. This 228g knife pairs the blade with a stabilised birch burl octagonal handle featuring spacers, creating a distinct tactile profile. The combination of workhorse geometry and decorative copper damascus cladding suits general purpose kitchen tasks including slicing meat, chopping vegetables, and disjointing cuts.
