Butch Harner 210mm Custom Gyuto – Carpenter XHP Steel
We’re proud to offer a limited run of custom 210mm gyutos from American bladesmith Butch Harner, a craftsman known for his bold designs, meticulous handwork, and uncompromising performance. These knives reflect Butch’s signature style—clean lines, exceptional grinds, and a feel in hand that professional chefs and serious home cooks alike will appreciate.
Crafted from Carpenter XHP steel, this gyuto combines the best of both stainless and carbon properties. XHP is a powder metallurgy steel with excellent edge retention, high hardness, and surprisingly easy sharpenability. It behaves more like a carbon steel in sharpening response while offering the corrosion resistance of a true stainless—making it a favorite among knife enthusiasts who want durability without compromise.
The 210mm gyuto is an ideal length for versatility in the kitchen, offering a perfect balance between agility and cutting power. Butch’s grind work stands out here—the blade tapers beautifully from heel to tip, with a thin, laser-like edge that glides through ingredients effortlessly.
Each knife is custom finished and fitted with a unique handle (materials may vary), contributing to a one-of-a-kind look and feel. As with all of Butch’s knives, quantities are very limited and availability is scarce.
