Gyuto Chef Knife 200 mm Bamboo Box Pakka Collection - KOTAI

KOTAI Gyuto Chef Knife with 200 mm blade and Bamboo Box from the Pakka Collection.

Its thin blade allows precise and sharp cuts, never crushing even the most delicate food to preserve their full flavor.

Hybrid between a Japanese and a German blade profile, the Gyuto's slightly curved belly allows a rocking motion for effortless chopping and mincing while the lowered tip makes precision work easier.

Besides its aesthetic appeal, the “Tsuchime” (槌目) - hammered pattern creates tiny pockets of air between the blade and the food being cut. This ancestral Japanese method reduces drag, thus preventing food from sticking to the blade.
