Hello all.I just took the dive into a Japanese gyuto(chefs knife western style) and there steel and all I can say is fantastic!This is the best knife I have ever laid hands on(and a great price)!Balance is perfect!Much harder than traditional knives from Europe and the U.S. and much less maintenence!
The knife brand is Tojiro and I purchased the 9.4"(240mm) one.
$63.00 U.S. with shipping.Here is the link.
