A 205mm MagnaCut gyuto

Something of a “proof of process” blade this 205mm MagnaCut gyuto features a laminated san-mai blade with a nickel carbon migration barrier between the core and cladding. The bevels are fully convex, and hand finished to 600 grit to enhance both aesthetic appeal and cutting performance. Weight-wise I would categorize this knife as a light midweight. The handle consists of oil finished and buffed Bocote. The choil and spine are nicely rounded as always with signature 600 grit crosshatching.
