Hinoura Tsukasa 21cm Gyuto – Gobi Damascus Copper & Brass Purple Handle Chef Knife

A Masterpiece of Sanjo Craftsmanship

Elevate your culinary artistry with a blade that transcends utility to become a piece of functional jewelry. This 21cm Gyuto is the result of a prestigious collaboration between the legendary third-generation blacksmith Hinoura Tsukasa and FAN OUT. Each knife is hand-forged in Sanjo, Niigata Prefecture, ensuring a unique character that cannot be replicated.

Visual Distinction & Gobi Damascus

The defining feature of this knife is the breathtaking ‘Gobi’ Damascus cladding. Unlike traditional steel-only patterns, this blade integrates layers of brass, copper, and stainless steel, creating a shimmering, multi-toned aesthetic that flows across the face of the blade. This is perfectly complemented by the vibrant purple laminated plastic-injected wood handle, providing a modern, ergonomic contrast to the ancient forging techniques.

High-Performance Cutting Core

Beneath the ornate exterior lies a core of Aogami (Blue Carbon Steel), renowned for its incredible edge retention and ease of sharpening. Mr. Hinoura’s traditional hand-sharpening process ensures a laser-sharp edge right out of the box.
