The K-Tip Gyuto - Etched Hook combines the superior cutting performance of ApexUltra monosteel with the precise guidance of a K-Tip geometry. Hardened to 66 HRC, the blade offers excellent edge retention, a fine carbide structure, and solid edge stability. The polished finish underscores its functional design.
 
With a 215 mm cutting edge and a 59 mm blade height, the Gyuto offers good control and ample finger clearance on the cutting board. The K-tip allows for fine cuts, while the etched hook grind reduces the sticking of moist ingredients. The distal taper narrows the spine from 5.30 mm at the base to 1.40 mm in the middle of the blade, and finally to 0.75 mm near the tip. Weighing just 159 grams, the knife is agile and easy to handle. 
 
As part of our Modular Takedown System, the blade is manufactured separately and can be flexibly combined with all compatible takedown handles. The handles are made to order, so production and shipping can take 2-4 weeks.
