A full Kasumi polish on this stunning wrought iron clad Gyuto. HRC 66+ Apex Ultra steel at the core. The handle is a beautiful stabilized Myrtle burl with a forged integral bolster.
The profile is Jonas’s classic santoku tipped Gyuto with a relatively low radius curve towards the tip. The santoku tip gives the knife rigidity, this is not a flexible blade. Stable, satisfyingly weighted, and well balanced. We are not talking workhorse grind though, the knife features a thin, sub 2mm average blade thickness with an absolutely laser tip.
Overall, a pleasure to work with on the cutting board.
Between the beautiful Myrtle burl handle and forged integral bolster, the satiny smooth kasumi polish and the artfully crafted performance profile and grind it’s hard to describe this piece as anything short of functional art.
