Yoshihiro Blue 2 Kasumi Gyuto 300mm Old Stock

Tax included Shipping calculated at checkout.


Free shipping for knives over AU$200 Australia wide.

A classic Sakai cutter! A few years back, I was lucky enough to obtain a batch of NOS (New Old Stock) blue 2 gyuto from Yoshihiro when I was visiting them. Accordingly to Mr Yamawaki himself, this batch has been sitting there for quite a few years. Since I have had this batch for a few years now, it is safe to say this batch has been forged for more than 10 (possibly more than 15) years now. As of the performance, this is a classic thin grind Sakai kasumi Gyuto. The easilest direct comparision is the older Blue 2 Gyuto by Mizuno Tanranjo. The way it penetrates through potato is extremely smootm. Edge is straight and stable, and has a very decent height. I am very happy with the performance of the knife, and also because this is a one-off offer, I have decided to give the knife a K&S touch: pairing it with the K&S Starry handle and wenge hardwood saya. Enjoy :)

Blade Height at Heel: 55 mm

Choil to Tip Length: 303 mm
