Gyuto knife with 240 mm blade length. The handle is octo shaped, made of ebony wood.

Hatsukokoro Hayabusa is a stunning knife with formidable performance. The name "Hayabusa," meaning peregrine falcon in Japanese, is a fitting tribute to this exceptional knife series that exudes both power and precision. The blade is thin, and the edge comes with a highly aggressive sharpness. It maintains its sharpness for a long time thanks to the core of the hard powdered steel SG-2 (hardened to 63 HRC). 

Core Steel: SG-2 powdered steel (Stainless with HRC 63)
Construction: 3 layers of steel with a soft stainless steel jacket (san mai).
Blade height: 52 mm
Weight: 191 grams
Edge length: 241 mm

Hatsukokoro Hayabusa is more than just a knife – it is an artistic and functional fusion of tradition and modern technology. A knife series that we highly recommend for those who appreciate both aesthetics and performance in the kitchen.
