Made In 8-inch Japanese Damascus Steel Gyuto
The Made In Japanese Damascus Steel Gyuto is the Japanese counterpart to a Western chef’s knife: one blade for slicing meat and fish, dicing onions, and mincing herbs. Made In has it forged in Seki, Japan, a city with more than 800 years of knife-making history, with a VG-10 core inside 66 layers of Damascus steel. The thin blade and 15-degree edge make clean, precise cuts with little effort, and the flatter profile suits a push or pull cut as well as a gentle rock.
Why It PerformsVG-10 core: A hard, stainless Japanese steel that takes a keen edge and resists corrosion, so the knife stays sharp through long prep sessions.Damascus cladding: Softer layers protect the core and give each blade its own wave pattern.15-degree edge: A finer angle than the 18-degree edge on Made In’s olive wood chef knife, so it cuts with less resistance through tomatoes, fish, and herbs.Thin, light blade: The 2.3 mm blade glides through food instead of wedging it apart.Full tang, polymer handle: Steel runs the length of the handle for balance, and the hand-finished handle resists slipping and staining.
What It Does BestSlicing proteins, from chicken breasts to raw fishDicing onions, peppers, and other vegetablesMincing herbs, garlic, and shallotsBreaking down large produce such as melons and cabbage
Choosing the Right Made In KnifeFor dedicated vegetable prep, the Made In 6.6-inch Japanese Damascus Steel Nakiri has a tall, flat blade made for straight up-and-down chopping. The Made In 6.6-inch Japanese Damascus Steel Santoku is a shorter, nimbler all-purpose blade. The gyuto is also sold in the Made In 2-Piece Japanese Damascus Steel Knife Set and the Made In 3-Piece Japanese Damascus Steel Knife Set.
