{"product_id":"gyuto-270mm-10-8","title":"Gyuto 270mm (10.6\")","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Gyuto is the most essential knife in any kitchen, making it a must-have for both professional chefs and home cooks. It will be your most frequently used knife, so choosing the right size and weight to suit your needs is crucial. This versatile blade handles a wide range of kitchen tasks, from chopping vegetables to slicing meat, making it the backbone of any knife collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCompared to traditional Japanese knives, the Gyuto tends to have a slightly heavier blade and a thicker spine, providing durability and stability for cutting through tougher ingredients. The curved edge is designed for the traditional rocking motion commonly used in Western chopping techniques, where the tip of the knife remains on the board while the blade moves back and forth. However, as Japanese and Chinese knives have gained popularity, many Western chefs have begun to favour wider blades that allow for a more up-and-down chopping motion, blending the best of both styles. With the right Gyuto in hand, you’ll have a precise, versatile, and highly efficient tool that makes every kitchen task easier and more enjoyable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Takeshi Saji Aogami #2 Rainbow Damascus is a striking handmade Japanese kitchen knife that combines traditional blacksmithing with exceptional visual artistry. Its Aogami #2 (Blue Paper Steel) core is renowned for its excellent edge retention, sharpness and ease of sharpening, while the distinctive Rainbow Damascus cladding features shimmering layers of copper, brass and bronze, creating a vibrant, multi-coloured pattern across the blade. Finished with a durable Corian handle, offering a smooth, comfortable and low-maintenance grip, this knife brings together outstanding cutting performance, innovative materials and Saji-san’s unmistakable craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 333\u003c\/span\u003eg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHandle Material: \u003c\/b\u003eAcrylic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHandle Length: \u003c\/b\u003e120mm (4.7\")\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 273mm (10.7\")\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlade Depth:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 53\u003c\/span\u003emm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThickness at spine:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.9mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThickness at tip: \u003c\/b\u003e0.3mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCutting Edge:\u003c\/b\u003e Double 50\/50\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlade Material:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAogami 2 rainbow damascus (blue 2) Iron clad-reactive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardness (Rockwell scale): \u003c\/b\u003e61 - 62\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Takeshi Saji Aogami 2 Rainbow Corian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58974673404287,"sku":null,"price":350.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/knivesforchefs.co.uk\/products\/gyuto-270mm-10-8","provider":"Knives for Chefs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
