MITSUMOTO SAKARI 8 inch Japanese Gyuto Chef Knife

MITSUMOTO SAKARI, a brand that exclusively focuses on crafting exceptional chef's knives, combines traditional Japanese hand-forging techniques with modern advanced technology. Situated in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, Japan, the MITSUMOTO SAKARI CO., LTD. is an independent design and development center dedicated to the art of Japanese chef knife making.

Each exquisite kitchen knife is carefully handcrafted by skilled knifemakers, with a minimum of 90 days required to complete the hand-forging process. By retaining the traditional hand-forging methods while incorporating thoroughly modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology, MITSUMOTO SAKARI provides professional chefs and home cooks alike with exceptional quality kitchen knives.

The MITSUMOTO SAKARI 8-inch Professional Japanese AUS-10 Damascus Gyuto Chef's Knife combines the shape of a traditional Western chef's knife with the lightweight design of a Japanese knife, offering added durability, delicate cutting ability, and ease of rocking, chopping, slicing, and dicing. The 2.2mm AUS-10 Damascus steel blade, forged by renowned Japanese knife makers, has a hardness of 60±2 HRC, dramatically improving sharpness, thinness, edge retention, and overall strength.

The professional Gyuto chef's knife is versatile, suitable for most everyday kitchen tasks, from cutting ripe fruits and vegetables to processing meat and sushi. The unique Damascus hand-forged grain and Pakkawood handles make cooking a true pleasure.

The 67-layer Damascus steel forging process, which combines advanced precision forging technology and traditional hand-forging methods, results in a blade with a finer microstructure and optimal performance. The vacuum heat treatment and deep cooling process further enhance the blade's strength, hardness, and edge retention.

Packaged in a premium sandalwood gift box, the Damascus Steel Gyuto Chef's Knife not only serves as a practical kitchen tool but also holds significant collectible and artistic value, making it an excellent choice for gifting on various occasions, such as Mother's Day, Father's Day, Thanksgiving, holidays, and birthdays.

Proper maintenance and precautions are essential for the longevity of these high-quality Damascus knives. Users are advised to wash the knife with water after each use, dry it, and store it in a dry, well-ventilated place. Sharpening with a professional grinding stone can extend the knife's lifespan. Avoidance of cutting bones, hard foods, and corrosive substances is also recommended.
