Takeshi Saji 240mm Gyuto SG2 - Western Ironwood

Takeshi Saji is a living legend in the field of knife making. He gained immense recognition in hunting knives, but has since taken his talent and shifted his focus to kitchen knives. He is best known for his very complex and extravagant Damascus finishes, and even though he is now in his 70s, he still manages to 'wow' the knife world with his innovative ways of forging.

This 240mm chef's knife is made with SG2 powdered steel as the core steel and finished with a stunning Damascus that has been acid-etched, giving the pattern a truly beautiful contrast.

Foodgear always advises against cutting through any form of bones and frozen goods. Knives should not be washed in the dishwasher, as this removes sharpness and provokes rust attacks - even in stainless alloys!
