The gyutou is a versatile chef's knife. It can be used for cutting meat, fish and vegetables, making it suitable for preparing Western cuisine. Lightweight and thin, Japanese chef knives have a sharper blade and maintain their sharpness longer than most other chef knives.
General knife care tips and warnings - Carbons knives are not stain resistant. Rust and discoloration will occur after cutting acidic ingredients or if left wet.
- Please wipe knives dry after use to prevent rusting. Korin recommends wiping carbon knives with tsubaki oil to keep moisture off the knife.
- Traditional Japanese knives have significantly thinner and more delicate blades than Western knives. The use of honing steels or sharpening machines will result in chipping.
- Please do not attempt to cut through bones with traditional Japanese knives, unless it is a butchering knife.
- Traditional Japanese knives could slightly bend, due to the heat tempering of the two different carbon quality steel in the blade. Korin offers customers a free service to prepare the knife before use.
- We advise all customers to have a skilled sharpener put the initial blade on knives, due to how the initial blade serves as a sharpening guide in the future. Korin offers a complimentary initial sharpening and uraoshi sharpening with every purchase.
- It is important to always flatten sharpening stones with a stone fixer to avoid knives from warping shapes.
- Please always use sharpening stones to sharpen traditional Japanese knives.
