Why Choose the TOJIRO DP Gyuto 240mm?

The Gyuto 240mm is a versatile chef’s knife designed for both professional kitchens and passionate home cooks.

Compared to the Gyuto 180mm, this larger version provides more power and control when cutting larger ingredients such as melons, meat, poultry, and fish. While relatively heavy by Japanese standards, it aligns with the weight and feel of German chef’s knives, making it ideal for cooks who prefer a more substantial blade.

The extra length and balance allow for smoother slicing motions and improved efficiency in handling bigger tasks.
