Tsunehisa Aogami Gyuto Chef Knife - 210mm - Western Handle

In addition to having your knife performance tuned before it ships, you will received a coupon for complimentary re-sharpening of your knife (a $12-$50 value). That is the District Cutlery difference.

The Tsunehisa line of knives are hand-made in Seki, Japan, by a small team of skilled craftsmen.

The blades are 3-layer stainless-clad aogami #2 (blue #2) high-carbon steel.

The handles are half-tang with riveted pakka wood scales. Half-tang knives have a more neutral balance than wa-handle knives.

Kitchen knives are used to cut the ingredients in your food. Japanese kitchen knives are famous for their sharpness and edge retention. Japanese chef knives are brittle and are designed for cutting soft tissue foods. High Carbon steel chef knives can rust if not kept dry.
