250mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto

A 250mm ProCut san mai gyuto

I’ve been sitting on this one for a while and finally have it done. This 250mm ProCut gyuto is similar to a shorter blade I put out in February of this year  (posted HERE) and features the same kind of complex grind geometry and stonework.

• Blade: 250mmx57mm ProCut/mild san-mai (64/65hrc) -stone set bevels + 2500 grit hand finish + etch and polish
• Neck: 19mmx19mm
• Handle: Wenge mono, oil finished and waxed
• POB: 66mm from the handle
• Spine: 3.94mm at the handle, 3.25mm at halfway, .78mm 1cm from the tip
• Grind: full convex zero grind
• Weight: 252g
• Relieved choil and spine
• Edge: .10mm@1mm, .23mm @2mm, 1.65mm at the shinogi measured at the midpoint,

As you can see the banding isn’t quite as prominent in this blade despite using the ame cladding material. I suspect this is due to the higher austenitizing temperature I used for ProCut vs the SheffCut in the last one. Nonetheless it has a distinct pattern in the cladding that I only wish I could highlight more.

*The cladding does indeed get close to the edge but at no point touches it

Any US Tariffs will be prepaid by myself in full.
