There’s something inherently satisfying about a well-made short gyuto, and this 210mm SG2 Damascus blade by Shiro Kamo hits all the right notes. Hand-forged in Takefu Village, it features a core of SG2 powdered stainless steel for outstanding edge retention and stain resistance. The knife is beautifully clad in a finely layered Damascus pattern that reflects Kamo-san’s craftsmanship. Light, responsive, and finely balanced, this gyuto is ideal for cooks who value precision, agility, and visual appeal in a daily driver.
