The Range - Hammered

These superb value knives are made using DSR 1K6 stainless steel to deliver excellent performance and easy maintenance at a very low price point with a traditional look and feel. 

The Steel - DSR 1K6 Stainless Steel

DSR-1K6 is a modern stainless steel. It offers great performance at a very achievable price point. Being cheaper and softer than other stainless steels it will require sharpening more often. 

The Model - Gyuto

The Gyuto is a multi-purpose, large bladed knife that you can use for almost everything. Typically these are light strong knives which range from 180mm to 240mm normally (although sometimes longer), with 210mm being the most common and popular size due to it's sweet spot of length for larger tasks but excellent agility. Longer knives tend to be used more for high volume tasks in professional kitchens where 240mm and even 270mm are popular. 180mm is popular for smaller home kitchen tasks too.

The blade profile is great for cutting in a rocking type motion. If you are looking for one knife, this is the most versatile.
