The Masahiro BWH Gyuto with an 18 cm blade is one of the most popular kitchen knives, chosen by both professional chefs and home cooking enthusiasts. Its characteristic design, inspired by the French style of kitchen knives, makes it ideal for performing a variety of tasks. The term “chef’s knife” emphasizes that this is an indispensable tool for every culinary enthusiast. The knife stands out for its lightness and ergonomic handle, which fits securely in hands of various sizes – both small and large. The perfectly balanced construction between the blade and the handle allows for a smooth, rocking motion when slicing and chopping, which translates into efficiency and comfort of use. The “Dimple” version is distinguished by special grooves on both sides of the blade, which minimize the sticking of sliced products, ensuring greater convenience and work efficiency. The BWH series was created based on the acclaimed MV-H line, using high-quality MBS-26 steel. This molybdenum-vanadium steel, enriched with carbon, is stainless and undergoes a three-stage hardening process, reaching a hardness of 58-59 HRC. Each knife in this series is masterfully finished by artisans with over 30 years of experience, which guarantees exceptional sharpness and durability of the blade. The handle is made of Black Pakkawood – wood pressed under high pressure and temperature, which is durable, moisture-resistant, and easy to care for thanks to its antibacterial coating. The ergonomic handle is reinforced with three precisely set rivets, which ensures comfort and a secure grip. The asymmetrical 80/20 sharpening, used by Masahiro, allows for a thinner and sharper cutting edge – up to 35% thinner than in standard symmetrical knives, which translates into unmatched cutting precision.
