The HD 220mm gyuto with ebony handle is one of the most popular knives we sell, combining refined performance with a very classy, understated look. The actual edge length measures a full 220mm, giving you a little more blade for your money while maintaining the balance and maneuverability that make this size ideal for home kitchens where board space can be limited. It feels light and nimble in hand yet offers enough length and height to handle serious prep with ease.
The proprietary HD semi stainless steel is heat treated to approximately 61 HRC, providing an excellent balance of edge retention and easy sharpening. The blade is ground thin behind the edge for smooth, low resistance cutting, while the 2.5 mm spine at the base offers stability and confidence. The ebony octagonal handle with laurel wood ferrule adds weight, presence, and a sophisticated aesthetic that pairs beautifully with the clean blade finish. As with any thin, hard Japanese knife, avoid twisting, prying, or cutting hard items such as bones or frozen foods to prevent chipping.
Care Instructions: Hand wash and dry immediately after use. Do not place in dishwasher. Use wood or soft plastic cutting boards only. Store in a blade guard or sheath. It will not fit standard 210 mm gyuto sayas. Please choose the leather sheath or an 8 inch blade guard instead.

Recently got this knife. My first knife with an octagonal handle. The blade is incredible. Very precise cuts through produce/proteins. Pleasure to use.
PS: The handle shape is something I need to get used to. I am not used to the ridges on the handle. Definitely not the knife’s fault.
