Being pure carbon steel, these knives will react to the moisture and acidity present in foods and may cause some discoloration; this is harmless and natural. We recommend that a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mtckitchen.com\/collections\/rust-removers\"\u003erust remover\u003c\/a\u003e is purchased in conjunction with these knives to remove patina and possible rust that may form. Letting a patina (black iron oxide) form on the outside of the blade will reduce further reactivity with foods and make the blade's surface more stable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese knives are very easy to sharpen and maintain; they may be maintained with a honing rod although we always recommend stones as the preferred method of maintenance. The steel is very easy to deburr and achieves a keen edge with ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eGyuto Knife\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gyuto (lit. Cow Sword) is an adaptation of the French chef knife profile for the Japanese market. While the name cow sword would imply that this knife is meant only for meat, its versatility is the same as a Santoku and can be used as a general-purpose knife for any task. Many would consider a Gyuto or chef's knife to be the one essential knife for any kitchen, with all other knives being secondary. Compared to a German-style chef's knife, a Gyuto will have a somewhat flatter profile: this profile lends itself well to push-cutting which is common for Japanese chefs, as opposed to rock-chopping. Gyuto also tends to be thinner at the edge as well as the spine than most European chefs' knives, and as a result have less lateral toughness, and care should be taken not to torque the blade while cutting to minimize the risk of chipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Misono","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67758099890545,"sku":"99264","price":280.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1014\/7459\/9281\/files\/99264_a_Misono_Swedish_Carbon_Steel_Gyuto_240mm_9.4.jpg?v=1792272099","url":"https:\/\/asc-forge.com\/products\/misono-swedish-carbon-steel-gyuto-240mm-9-4","provider":"ASC Forge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
