A 240mm A2 (SKD12) Gyuto Chef Knife
This profile is a variation on my Sabatier styled pattern with a a slightly lower tip, and a slightly longer flat. It’s also a bit heavier than is typical for me owing to a bit less distal taper than I usually grind. Nail flexing, full convex and hand finished in (seemingly) everyone’s favourite semi stainless. This knife should be a delight.
