Hitohira Futana Gyuto (Chefs Knife) Migaki, Tsuchime, 210mm

Hitohira Futana SB knives are a premium line of Japanese knives that are known for their exceptional sharpness and performance. The Hitohira Futana series is made with some of Japan’s best carbon steels with great heat treatment. The steel is a Super Blue Steel core (carbon steel) with stainless steel cladding.

The Japanese octagonal handles are made from stunning Cherry wood, Hitohira’s trademark handle.

These knives blur the line between handmade and factory-made. With many parts of the construction are done completely by hand yet other parts achieved by machines.
The result is a knife that cuts similarly to a handmade knife without the handmade price tag.

The Hitohira SB knives are known for being reliable 'work horses' with real Japanese cutting power.
These knives are perfect for a wide range of tasks in the kitchen, from chopping vegetables to slicing meats. Overall, the Hitohira S3 knives are a beautiful and functional addition to any kitchen, perfect for both professional chefs and home cooks alike.

This series comes in a  Migaki (Polished finish) with a Tsuchime (hammered) finish.

*The cutting edge will patina and darken with use.
The core steel in this knife is subject to corrosion, so be sure to follow knife care instructions to help avoid surface rust.

Leigh’s 2 cents: Great work horses! Not super thin yet blasts through food.
Slightly thicker than a Ohishi Blue #2 and Tadafusa making these a little more durable.
Wipe down and paper towel dry after you are done at first. After the patina has been formed these are super easy to care for if your familiar with carbon steel knives. 
Great for a busy kitchen or a fantastic home knife.
