Chef knives

  The chef's knife bears the Gyuto label in  Japan. It is difficult to imagine a chef who would not have this very versatile knife in his hand. The knife also forms a kind of status of its owner.

 With a slight exaggeration, we can say that there is a direct relationship between the "size" of the kitchen boss and the  size of his knife. Just be careful, only a very experienced chef can work effectively with  the longest blades.
Gyuto knives usually have a blade length of  18 to 30cm. We most often encounter nbsp; lengths between 20 and 24cm. The blade is wide at the heel and  flows smoothly into the tip. This shape ensures that the knife is versatile.

Gyuto is not a typical Japanese knife. It was brought by the Americans, who taught the Japanese the fashion of steaks.
