Blade Shape - Kiritsuke Gyuto
Essentialy what we have here is a gyuto (Japanese version of a western chef knife) with the tip of a kiritsuke knife (traditional single bevel japanese knife).
This K tip not only looks great but is super practical for finer jobs, like slicing garlic or removing fat from meat.
As it's a full size chef knife you could use this for most jobs in the kitchen, from dicing carrots to carving your sunday roast, its your all round companion in the kitchen.
Steel Type - SPG2
Super high grade stainless knife steel with high toughness, high hardness and high corosion resistence, making for a knife which can be expected to hold it's edge well, have a good resistance to damage and be resistant to patina from contact with acids in food.
Care information
A knife like this performs so well becuse it's to thin, but that does mean it's more susceptible to damage, so with this in mind no twisting or riving the knife if it gets stuck in food, no cutting toward bone or cutting frozen food and absolutley no dishwashers!
HADO
HADO are a company we've been trying to forge a relationship with for years, but with knives as in-demand as theirs it's not been easy!
Only producing knives since 2019 HADO are a very much a new kid on the block, which we take to be a good thing. In a business so steeped in tradition it takes fresh eyes to try something different and break away from the pack.
Based in Sakai, one of Japans knife making centres HADO produce knives of exceptional quality.
