Gyuto old Pro Series - Hazaki

For the cook who needs a single blade to do it all, this Gyuto (“chef’s knife” in Japanese) will slice, chop, and dice with ease. The longer blade typically gives the knife a forward balance that allows it to work for you. The blade has a flat part for push cut specialists and a curve towards the tip for rock motion.
