Yoshihiro HGW Gyuto 180 mm – VG-1 Stainless Steel Japanese Chef’s Knife
The Yoshihiro HGW Gyuto 180 mm is a practical Japanese chef’s knife made with VG-1 Stainless Steel at the core of the blade and stainless steel cladding using the traditional Warikomi construction.
VG-1 is a High-Carbon Stainless Steel known for its good balance of sharpness, toughness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. It is also relatively easy to sharpen compared with many higher-hardness stainless steels.
The blade is finished relatively thin to balance durability with sharp cutting performance, making it easy to handle for everyday kitchen work. The Gyuto is a versatile Japanese chef’s knife suitable for slicing, chopping, and general preparation of meat, fish, and vegetables.
Designed as a practical home-use knife, the HGW offers reliable stainless steel performance and easy maintenance at an accessible price.
