JCK Original Kagayaki R-2 Black Damascus Series YU-3 Gyuto 210mm (8.2inch)
For the core steel of this Damascus knife, Master Craftsman Mr. Gotou selected a special Powdered Metallurgy High Speed Tool Steel called āR-2ā, which he heat-treats to HRc. 63.Ā R-2Ā is made by a highly reputable Japanese company calledĀ Kobelco, and the steel offers remarkable cutting performance and edge retention. The two outer layers of the blade are made from a unique and elegantly patterned Damascus steel, which is comprised of alternating layers of white-colored nickel steel and sparkling mirror polished layers of steel.Ā
Mr. Gotoh decided to work in collaboration with a Master forge-smith, who uses traditional forge hammering techniques to exploit the best characteristics of the steel. The finishing work is then carried out by Master Gotohās reliable team of highly skilled craftsmen. The matte-black blade features shining layers of nickel steel that resemble silver highlights.
KAGAYAKI R-2 Damascus SeriesĀ knife has an attractive and very durable LinenĀ MicartaĀ handle, which ensures a comfortable and secure grip. The knife also comes with a matching woodenĀ SayaĀ (Sheath) with a decorative black lacquer finish, which complements the appearance of theĀ MicartaĀ handle and Damascus blade very well.
The Gyuto is the Japanese version of the classic Western Chefās knife. It can be used with a variety of different cutting techniques to achieve a wide range of kitchen tasks and is suitable for cutting the vast majority of meats, fish, vegetables and fruits. The Gyuto is true multi-purpose knife.
