The Sentan Gyuto 210mm with purple-gold ferrule is designed as a true all-purpose kitchen knife, offering a balance of length, agility, and cutting power for a wide range of tasks. “Sentan,” meaning “tip” or “leading edge,” reflects the goal of delivering high performance at an accessible price. Built around SLD semi-stainless steel, this knife offers excellent edge retention, solid toughness, and easier sharpening than many high-hardness stainless steels. The grind is thin and efficient, allowing the blade to glide cleanly through proteins, vegetables, and herbs with minimal resistance.
The blade features stainless steel cladding for improved corrosion resistance, with a nashiji finish on the upper portion and an exposed SLD edge for a clean, purposeful look. It’s fitted with a comfortable olive wood handle and a distinctive purple-gold acrylic ferrule that adds a unique visual pop while maintaining durability and water resistance. The result is a well-balanced, versatile gyuto that performs reliably in both home and professional kitchens.
Please note that the manufacturing process for the acrylic ferrule uses both purple and gold tones, which results in a varying mixture of the two colors.
Care Instructions: Hand wash only and dry immediately after use. Do not store the knife wet or leave it in a sheath or saya while damp. Avoid cutting hard or frozen foods. Use a wooden or soft synthetic cutting board. SLD steel is semi-stainless and may develop a light patina over time; this is normal and does not affect performance.
