Yoshikane Gyuto 215 mm – Extra Tall

This limited Yoshikane gyuto is a rare find, featuring an extra tall blade, 54-55 mm, a characteristic seldom seen from Yoshikane. Due to its limited availability, we reserve the right to sell out quickly. Simply put, this knife is outstanding in balance, weight, blade height, and comes with a razor-sharp and thin edge. The flawless finish further elevates its status as a top favorite among our team at Cleancut.

Yoshikane knives are known for their thicker spine, transitioning into ultra-thin, precise edges. This ensures exceptional cutting performance, but also requires careful handling to avoid damage. If you're looking for elite-level performance, this knife delivers.

Specifications:

• Core Steel: SKD (semi-stainless, 63-64 HRC)

Care Notes:

While SKD is semi-stainless, it is still reactive and will develop a patina over time. The stainless cladding protects the sides, but the core steel edge must be dried properly after use to prevent rust.
