The Tsunehisa SLD Washiji Gyuto Knife (21 cm) is a well-balanced chef’s knife designed for cooks who value traditional Japanese styling paired with modern performance. Its Gyuto shape offers versatility and control across a wide range of cutting tasks.
Built around a SLD steel core, the blade delivers stable edge performance and reliable sharpness retention. Stainless cladding enhances corrosion resistance, while the Nashiji finish adds a subtle, textured surface that reflects classic Japanese craftsmanship. The thin, even grind allows for clean cuts and precise handling.
An octagonal handle made from burnt oak wood completes the knife, providing a natural grip and distinctive visual character. This model represents Tsunehisa’s approach to functional, honest Japanese kitchen knives—designed to perform consistently and age gracefully with use.
