Forged by Master Yu Kurosaki in Takefu, this double-bevel gyuto features VG XEOS steel hardened to 62-63 HRC, a grade produced by Takefu Special Steel using a special melting method to achieve fine microstructure, wear resistance, and strength. The san-mai stainless clad construction pairs with a uniform high-grit Migaki finish on the bevel, distinguishing the Gekko series within Kurosaki’s range of performance-focused blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 270mm gyuto measures 59mm tall at the heel with a spine thickness of 2.1mm tapering to 0.9mm near the tip, supporting general-purpose tasks including mincing, slicing, and chopping. The octagonal ebony handle provides a tapered geometric grip suited to extended prep work. As a stainless-clad blade, it offers easier care than reactive carbon steels while maintaining the acute edge geometry characteristic of Japanese cutlery. Users should note that the high-hardness VG XEOS core can be brittle, requiring appropriate cutting technique to preserve the edge during heavy use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kurosaki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47434780442845,"sku":"KS-GEKKO-GY270-EB","price":465000.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/DSC_1470.jpg?v=1771383826","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.co.kr\/en\/products\/kurosaki-gekko-vg-xeos-gyuto-270mm-ebony-handle","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
