This new series is a hybrid version of the acclaimed 3 layer Blazen SRS15 Series which had a Western 3 rivet handle and a polished finish made by the legendary Ryusen Forge. The new edition has a traditional Japanese handle made of polished Walnut with SG2 Powder Steel Core and a ‘Soft Tsuchime’ Nashiji finish. The SG2 core has the capacity to be tempered to a very high level of hardness (62:64 HRC) thus sharpened to a surgically sharp edge that is very enduring. The super thin blades are easy to sharpen. The undulating ‘Soft Tsuchime’ Nashiji finish allows oily / fatty foods to be released from the knife without sticking and the polished Walnut handle add a touch of luxury that is ergonomically sound. The overall functionality and aesthetic is in keeping with uncompromising Japanese standards. GYUTO (Gyu – cow & To – sword): This is the Japanese interpretation of a Western Chef’s knife. It is flat from the handle end for about 1/3rd of the edge and then curves to the tip. It is ideal for the Western style of roll cutting. Function – Multipurpose chef knife. For Slicing, Dicing, Mincing, Filleting and Chopping of meat, fish and vegetables. Normal length – 180mm to 300mm. Tip: With the edge flat for about 1/3rd of the blade – 210 mm or longer the knife-edge profile is the same as a 180mm Santoku from the handle to tip and the same as a 180mm Gyuto from the tip to handle – so essentially a 180mm Gyuto & 180mm Santoku in one knife. The 210mm is the most favoured size for most chefs.
All knives come with one free sharpening. Avoid using on frozen foods and on bones.
