    4. Be careful not to leave the knife close to a heat source for a long time;

    6. It is best to sharpen a Japanese knife regularly on a waterstone.

    • Profile: Gyuto

      Chefs Knife

      A Japanese chef's knife is known as a gyuto (牛刀 ぎゅうとう） gyūtō?), literally meaning 'beef knife'. Its blade resembles a flatter version of a French chef's knife. Japanese cutlery is known for sharpness due to its acute blade geometry, and the hardness of the steel used, sometimes exceeding 60 HRC on the Rockwell Scale A typical western chef's knife may be sharpened to an edge angle of 20-22°, while a Japanese gyuto generally has a sharper edge angle of 15-18° (or even lower), which requires a harder, more brittle grade of steel. In recent years Japanese gyuto have gained in popularity with western chefs.

      A modern chef's knife is a multi-purpose knife designed to perform well at many differing kitchen tasks, rather than excelling at any one in particular. It can be used for mincing, slicing, and chopping vegetables, slicing meat, and disjointing large cuts.

    • Steel: Inox

      The Sakai Takayuki Inox line uses stainless steel (“Inox” from inoxydable) designed to offer a practical balance of performance, durability, and low maintenance. Typically hardened to around 57–59 HRC, it takes a sharp edge while remaining easy to sharpen and more forgiving than harder, brittle steels. The stainless composition gives excellent resistance to rust and staining, making it suitable for users who prefer less upkeep compared to traditional carbon steels. While edge retention is moderate and may not match high-end carbon or powder steels, the Inox line excels in everyday kitchen use, especially for home cooks and professionals wanting reliability and ease of care.
