Kakehashi 7″ Damascus Steel Gyuto 牛刀
Introducing the Kakehashi 梯川 by Shimeru, a premium 7″ gyuto knife that redefines versatility and craftsmanship in your kitchen. Expertly designed for culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs alike, this knife combines the precision of a gyuto with the robust functionality of a cleaver, making it an essential tool for a wide range of culinary tasks.
The Kakehashi features a stunning blade crafted from 67 layers of forged Damascus steel, offering exceptional sharpness and durability. This multi-layered construction not only enhances the knife’s strength but also showcases a beautiful, flowing pattern that reflects the age-old traditions of Japanese metallurgy. With its finely honed edge, the Kakehashi effortlessly slices, minces, and chops everything from delicate vegetables to hearty meats, making it perfect for meal prep or intricate plating.
What sets the Kakehashi apart is its unique dual functionality. The 7″ blade is perfectly balanced, providing the agility and precision of a gyuto while possessing the heft and durability of a cleaver. This allows you to tackle a variety of kitchen tasks with ease—whether you’re dicing onions, chopping herbs, breaking down poultry, or slicing through thick cuts of meat. Its robust design ensures it can handle even the toughest ingredients without compromising performance.
Designed for comfort and control, the Kakehashi features an ergonomic carved wooden handle that feels natural in your hand. The thoughtful carving provides a secure grip that reduces fatigue, allowing for extended use without discomfort. This attention to detail in the handle’s design ensures that you can manoeuvre the knife with precision and confidence, whether you’re engaged in detailed work or high-volume food preparation.
Discover the unparalleled craftsmanship and functionality of the Kakehashi by Shimeru, a knife that beautifully bridges the gap between a gyuto and a cleaver. Perfect for culinary creators who seek quality and versatility in their tools, the Kakehashi will inspire your cooking journey, making every task a pleasure and every dish a masterpiece.
