With approximately 1.1% carbon and a relatively simple composition, it is a rewarding choice for cooks who enjoy maintaining their knives with whetstones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite #2 responds readily to sharpening, allowing a crisp cutting edge to be restored with good technique. Its appeal is the combination of excellent edge potential and ease of maintenance on the stones. The finished knife's cutting performance and edge retention also depend on heat treatment, blade geometry and how it is sharpened and used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eKnife type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGyuto\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSteel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite #2 (Shirogami #2) carbon steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBlade length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e240mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOverall length with handle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e395mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBlade height at heel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpine thickness at heel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpine thickness at midpoint\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpine thickness at tip\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.1mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight with handle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTsuchime (hammered)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHandle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCustom wa handle, according to the selected option; no handle on Blade Only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMeasurements are approximate.

Do not put the knife in a dishwasher or leave it soaking. Use a wooden or suitable plastic cutting board, avoid bones and frozen food, and do not twist the blade through a cut. Store with the edge protected, and apply a light coat of food-safe knife oil before extended storage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokushu Knife","offers":[{"title":"Rosewood \u0026 Horn","offer_id":50492879831297,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-RH","price":220.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebony \u0026 Horn","offer_id":50492879864065,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-EH","price":220.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cypress \u0026 Horn","offer_id":50492879896833,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-CH","price":230.94,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amboyna with Contrast","offer_id":50492879929601,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-AC","price":230.94,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rosewood \u0026 Ebony","offer_id":50492879962369,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-RE","price":188.56,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blade Only","offer_id":50492879995137,"sku":"TK-TSU-GY240-BO","price":157.84,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/7687\/5777\/files\/tokushu-tsuchime-gyuto-240-rosewood-horn-01.jpg?v=1791279352","url":"https:\/\/tokushuknife.eu\/en-hr\/products\/tokushu-knife-tsuchime-gyuto-240mm-custom-wa-handle","provider":"Tokushu Knife Malta","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
