Masakage Mizu Gyuto 210mm
About Masakage Mizu -Â
The rustic Mizu series really shows off the beauty that traditional carbon steel is known for. Translating to âwaterâ in Japanese, this collectionâs name is inspired by the deep bluish-black âkurouchiâ finish. Iâve always loved carbon steel because it cuts like a dream, and when you use the knife, you can almost feel the heart and soul of the blacksmith in your hand.
I know from experience how little money young chefs and cooks have for good tools, so the Mizu series was created to provide a traditional Japanese blade that was accessible to themâor anyone else on a tight budget!
Takumi Ikeda-san, the nephew of legendary blacksmith and Takefu Knife Village co-founder Katsushige Anryu-san, began his knifemaking apprenticeship in 2007. In January 2021, Anryu-san officially passed the reins of Anryu Hamono to Ikeda-san. By that point, Ikeda-san was already a master and doing most of the forging at Anryu Hamono. With some serious traditional skills under his belt and a fresh outlook on knifemaking, Ikeda-san is already doing the family legacy justice.
About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife, Gyutos are a multi purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. âGyutoâ translates to âcow sword.â If you want one knife to do it all, This is it. Starting at 180mm, Gyutos can reach the ridiculously long (and awesome) 370mm. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Gyuto which measures between 210mm and 270mm long.
