Gyuto 220mm Honyaki Kogatana Set

Kind of burying the lead here, but I wanted to start with the stunning material selection on this one. Primarily the stunning walnut used for the body of the handle and the Saya. Walnut is such a beautiful timber. It has an incredible subtle character. This feels perfect as a paring for the distinct and classy style of a Honyaki blade.

The walnut features incredibly stunning figure with some lovely eyes and a soft matte finish that has a delightful soft texture to it. At the business end of the handle, you will find a classy antler and buffalo horn ferule giving the handle an antique feel about it.

So, getting to the main attraction, the blade is incredible. A lovely geometry, tapered spine and a thin and sharp edge. The incredible stone finish, beautiful cloud Hamon and detailed alloy banding are really what this knife is all about and its stunning.

This incredible Gyuto comes as a set with a Kogatana utility knife, with its own unique space in the hand crafted Saya. An incredibly unique piece of one of the UK’s finest craftsmen.
