240mm MagnaMax San-Mai Gyuto

A 240mm MagnaMax gyuto

This 240mm MagnaMax gyuto features a laminated san-mai blade with a nickel carbon-migration barrier between the core and cladding. The bevels are fully convex, stone tuned, hand finished to 2500 grit and have received several etch and polishing cycles with loose abrasive to reveal the banding. Weight-wise I would categorize this knife as a heavy midweight to light workhorse. The handle features a tightly fit and stippled brass endcap on top of an oil finished and buffed, stabilized curly mango handle. The choil and spine are well rounded and finished to 2500 grit.
