Blade Hardness
HRC (Rockwell Hardness) measures how hard the blade's steel is. Kitchen knife steel typically falls in the high-50s to mid-60s on this scale. Harder steel is built to hold a fine edge over long use, while softer steel favors flexibility and easy resharpening. The right HRC depends on the steel and design, not a single higher-is-better number.
Stain Resistant
This steel resists rust and staining from moisture and acidic foods, making it easy to maintain with routine care.
Saya Cover
This knife comes with its saya cover included at no additional cost, shaped to its exact blade for the same custom fit customers pay extra for on other knives.

Product Details
Three decorative rings set into the octagonal ebony handle set apart this 9.5" (240mm) Ice Hardened AUS10 Gyuto. The longer blade suits cooks who break down whole vegetables, carve roasts or work across a wide board, and the single-piece AUS10 construction keeps care simple: it resists staining, while ice hardening gives the thin, double-edged blade a keen edge with dependable retention.
The Gyuto, often considered the most versatile and essential of all Japanese kitchen knives, is perfect for a wide range of tasks. From dicing, slicing, and chopping fresh produce to carving a perfectly roasted chicken, a high-quality chef's knife like the Yoshihiro Ice Hardened Stainless Steel Wa Gyuto Chef Knife elevates the entire cooking experience. Whether you're preparing ingredients from the local market or preparing a large family meal, this handcrafted knife is as functional as it is beautiful.
The Wa Gyuto is forged from a single piece of Ice Hardened Aus10 stainless steel, which makes it incredibly sharp, with excellent edge retention. The Western-style curved blade smoothly rocks back and forth and features an extended tip for quick and easy chopping. This knife is complemented with a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted octagonal Ebony handle that fits comfortably in the hand. The knife comes with a Saya, a wooden sheath that not only protects the blade but also adds a touch of elegance when the knife is not in use.
