Togiharu 10.5" Gyuto with Petrified Wood Handle

This product is not currently available.

Whorls of butterscotch, auburn and jet vein the petrified-wood handles of Togiharu’s gyuto, the Japanese interpretation of the French chef’s knife. Hand-honed in Seki City by master craftsman Hiromune Takaba, no two are alike. These knives are an investment as sound as cast-iron enamel cookware. Made with skill and care, they’re built to last.

Here's what you get:

  • One 10.5" Togiharu Gyuto knife with a petrified wood handle

Eastern Meets West

The knife collections displayed like museum artifacts in Korin’s TriBeCa boutique fall into “Japanese” and “Western” categories. Classically crafted for Japanese chefs preparing French or Italian (AKA “Western”) cuisine, the handsome Togiharu group comes from the latter, featuring straight, stain-resistant steel blades that possess the kodo (hardness) and nebari (resiliency) valued in the East and lightness and durability valued in the West.
