A refined beautifully hammer finished workhorse from Nigara Hamono, this 210mm gyuto pairs high-performance Aogami Super carbon steel with a striking tsuchime (hammered) finish. The blade delivers exceptional edge retention and a crisp, aggressive bite, ideal for proteins, vegetables, and fast-paced prep. The hammered surface helps reduce drag and food sticking, while the grind offers a strong balance between durability and cutting precision. Finished with a warm teak wood handle, this knife feels solid, controlled, and ready for daily use.
