À propos de la forme - Inspiré par le profil d'un couteau de chef européen traditionnel, les Gyutos sont un couteau polyvalent avec un léger biais pour couper la viande. « Gyuto » se traduit par « épée de vache ». Si vous voulez qu'un seul couteau fasse tout, c'est celui-là. À partir de 180 mm, Gyutos peut atteindre les 370 mm ridiculement longs (et impressionnants). Pour le cuisinier à domicile ou professionnel, nous recommandons un Gyuto qui mesure entre 210 mm et 270 mm de long.

À propos de Masashi Kemuri - Masashi-san fabrique une lame tranchante magnifiquement polie et folle, travaillant entièrement par lui-même à forger, affûter et mettre les poignées. Il est aussi un peu un preneur de risques, forgeant des couteaux dans ses tongs et allumant des cigarettes avec de l'acier de couteau chauffé à blanc. Mal. Cul. La série Kemuri sans prétention est un travailleur extrêmement dur grâce à la puissance de l'acier inoxydable SLD, qui reste tranchant comme l'acier au carbone mais ne rouille pas. Le manche en châtaignier brûlé et en corne de bœuf ajoute une touche de sensualité à ces lames élégantes.

Une note sur les mesures : Les couteaux japonais faits à la main peuvent varier dans leurs dimensions, ces mesures ne sont donc qu'un exemple.


A NOTE ABOUT RUST

Semi-stainless steel is a compromise between the edge retention of carbon steel
and the rust resistance of stainless. This steel will rust if you let it. To avoid “bad” rust (orange rust) Wipe the knife dry with a dry cloth after use. By this we mean: between cutting and putting the knife down, wipe it dry. Overtime the blade will begin to protect itself with an oxide layer (grey to dark grey “good” rust), this will slow the reaction time but not inhibit the rust entirely. Maintain the good habit of drying off your knife.

USE  

• Only cut food you can bite through with this knife. Hard foods can chip the blade. No olive pits, bones,  lobster shells, woody stems or parmesan rinds. Cutting frozen food is especially bad because the cold will make hard steel even more brittle. If you wouldn’t chew it with your own teeth, don’t cut it.  

• Your cutting surface is the biggest culprit of dulling your knife. Use wood. End-grain wood is especially good. Plastic can be fine too, but certainly not glass,  granite or bamboo. 

• The edge of your knife works best sliding forwards or backwards. Scraping the knife edge sideways will dull or damage the edge. Instead, use the spine of the knife to move foods across the cutting board. Do not twist the edge or pry with the edge, this is the worst screwdriver you ever bought and these motions will certainly damage the edge. Listen to the knife! If you can hear the edge making a “tink”  sound on the cutting board, change what you are doing.  

CLEANING  

• After use, wash the knife by hand with regular dish soap, rinse with hot water  and dry by hand immediately. Dishwashers are very bad for knives.  

• Wood handles may dry out over time and exposure to water. Simply treat them  with some food safe mineral oil or beeswax.  

• If you see orange rust, remove it. The scrubby side of a sponge can do the trick.  If it’s still not coming off try baking soda and water mixed into a paste or a product called Barkeeper’s Friend.  

STORING  

• Protect the edge; for your safety and to avoid edge damage. A simple blade cover  will do the trick if you keep knives in a drawer or travel case. 

• A convenient wall magnet made with wood is a great way to show off your knives.  Be sure to put it back spine first, then roll it onto the blade face. This will keep the  edge from contacting the wood first.  

• The good-ol’ counter top block can keep knives at the ready and protected. So can drawer inserts. Whatever the method, keep the edge from touching anything else.

Reviews

My first Gyuto

"Fantastic knife, comfortable in hand that I could use it for extended periods of time if I needed to. Razor sharp as all knives I’ve gotten from knifewear."

— Isaiah M. (5/5)

Gorgeous and easy to use!

"This knife is so gorgeous and cuts beautifully. Such a delight to use for all my daily kitchen needs. I loved the whole experience of chatting with the super friendly knowledgeable staff and trying out a variety of options, and just holding and using my new knives brings me so much joy. Highly recommend."

Masashi Kemuri 210mm Gyuto

"I’ve had this knife for a whole week now. My first Japanese knife ever. I had an inkling of what I wanted from reading reviews for weeks, but had no idea what would accomplish what I wanted until I went into the store. They spent an hour until we found the style; size and shape that fit, the Masashi Kemuri. THEN we played with the individual knifes in my selection since each custom made knife is different even in the same line/size/style. As it’s is my first I have nothing to compare it to other than the knives I tried in the store. I love it! I wish I could upload the beautiful cuts ofthe Caprese salads we made from the market’s heirloom tomatoes. Outstanding! All of my US brethren should take advantage of the strong US dollar and hit on up there and hit your Japanese knives! Tim in Texas"

Gift for Brother - Fantastic Knife

"Gift for my brother. He has nothing but good things to say so far. Says it cuts through meat like butter"

— Hayden G. (5/5)

"I arrived to get a few knives sharpened and was amazed with the quality of the service. So much so that I left with 2 more beautiful and quality knives that we use daily. Thank you for both. Mike Knapp"

— Mike K. (5/5)

Love this knife, it is

"Love this knife, it is well balanced and very very sharp."

— Seamus T. (5/5)

Love showing this knife off!

"The knife us a great weight and feel in the hand. It is sharp and has maintained its edge well. There have been two issues with it that are worth mentioning. The first was a small chip in the blade that must have occurred when cutting through some small fish bones. I was advised not to cut through bones so figured it was small enough. Second issue was about 2 mm from the tip broke off through normal wear and tear. I will give Knifewear props though. The crew at the store was awesome and did a super quick repair on it. Good as new. Will definitely be investing in some more products from Knifewear."

— Erik E. (4/5)

"Knife was sharp and looked great but the tip was very fragile and broke after the second use of the knife."

Q&A

It says oval/octagonal handle. Does it mean it’s a hybrid or that that it can be bought with either of them?
the burnt chestnut handles are oval, these are the main handle that he uses for the kemuri and kuroshu lines. They sometimes have another pagoda wood option that looks like a tear drop, this is like hybrid of the two.
Hello Knifewear: Curiosity kills me: do the funky whimsical Masashi logos on the knife, t-shirt and presentation card (Springhammer, Masashi part) symbolize or mean anything? Save me a 210 gyuto. Thanks, REDC
Great question! The two symbols are ancient Japanese symbols for the sun and the moon - don't ask me which is which, my ancient Japanese is a little bit rusty :D
Hello Knifewear: When will Masashi Kemuri be back in stock? I'm very interested in a 210 gyuto. Thanks, REDC
Hey there! We're hoping to have some more Masashi knives arriving in late February/Early March. If you pop your email address into the "Notify me When Available" section on our website, we'll send you a message as soon as they arrive. Thanks a bunch!!
Hello! I was waiting for this masashi to come back into stock, I’d forgotten to ask- what the cutting edge length & the heel height? Thank you! Greg
Hey Greg, No worries, the blade height is 52mm and the cutting edge measures 22cm. Let me know if you have any other questions! - Ellie
