Forged by American master craftsman Jim Dobbler this 265mm Gyuto features sleek and classy profile with a rigid tapered spine. At the edge the knife is about 25% flat, with a lovely belly that ends in a tight curve before the tip. The blade feels very comfortable on the board with a satisfying weight and balance. The profile lends itself well to push/pull cuts and will rock comfortably for those rock choppers. Balanced for a pinch grip, equilibrium can be found at the “Dobbler Made” mark.
The blade is forged in AEB-L stainless steel, a very high quality steel with great edge retention and hardness (64HRC). Featuring a subtle hollow grind geometry the blade is very sharp and performs exceptionally well for fine slicing, while still making its way through more robust produce with ease. The hollow grind is subtle enough to give the knife a razor sharp edge while not impacting food release considerably, its very balanced an a joy to use.
The handle is made from a combination of Arizona Ironwood, imitation ivory and patinated brass. The combination is stunning!
Fit and finish on this blade is of the highest standard and and the knife is a joy to use.
