Mizu Yaki is a meticulous process of pure water quenching that draws out the hardness of refined steel while infusing it with enough resiliency to perform consistently in the most exacting of conditions. The Black Forged 'Kurouchi' finish consists of the carbonized coating created during heat treating and provides for a characteristic look and a rustic aesthetic to the blade. With a hardness on the Rockwell scale of 63-64, the inner core of Blue High Carbon Steel #1 is prized for its high edge retention. It is sandwiched in between carbon steel in the traditional Warikomi style to add to its durability and ease sharpening. It takes a very high degree of skill to create knives of such exceptional performance and exquisite beauty with a steel of this caliber and is a testament to the extraordinary skill of the artisans. The most versatile and essential of all knives a cook can have is a Japanese chefs knife known as a Gyuto knife. The Gyuto is a Japanese chefs knife with a curved blade that smoothly rocks back and forth and has an extended tip for quick chopping that can be used to cut meat, fish, and vegetables. Proudly made in Japan and not mass produced. This knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese Wa-style handcrafted Octagonal Handle that is lightweight and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use. An optional and recommended protective wooden sheath called a Saya can be purchased together, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. Every knife from Yoshihiro is handcrafted by master artisans creating a unique one-of-a-kind work of art. Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry only, and do so immediately if working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods. Carbon steel can oxidize if not properly maintained. Keep dry and oil regularly to prevent oxidation. - P.when('A','ready').execute(function(A) { - function setFeatureBulletsExpanderCollapsedHeight() { - var $ = A.$; - var PRODUCT_OVERVIEW_V2_FEATURE_MAX_HEIGHT = 540; - var FEATUREBULLETS_TOP_MARGIN_OFFSET_CORRECTION = 12; - var EXPANDER_HEADING_HEIGHT = 20; - var expanderElement = $("#pov2FeatureBulletsExpander"); - if(expanderElement !== null) { - var productOverviewFeatureElement = $('#productOverview_feature_div'); - var featureBulletsExpanderContent = $('#pov2FeatureBulletsExpanderContent'); - var featureBulletsExpanderHeading = $('#pov2FeatureBulletsExpanderHeading'); ## Images ![Yoshihiro Mizuyaki Blue High Carbon Steel Black Forged Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rR6I2j1QL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro Mizuyaki Blue High Carbon Steel Black Forged Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CypSX07IL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro Mizuyaki Blue High Carbon Steel Black Forged Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81rFukWekzL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro Mizuyaki Blue High Carbon Steel Black Forged Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81KEwwf-OPL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro Mizuyaki Blue High Carbon Steel Black Forged Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+H4Idd0GL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If I am to be murdered, I want this knife to be the object used. *by I***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2021* 10/10 ### ⭐ EXPENSIVE KNIFE! POOR QUALITY! BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE! *by P***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2022* This blade was bought for my son as a Father's Day gift. He used it on several occasions, but in less than 8 weeks of normal use the blade cracked near the tip. Contacted the seller who said he would not replace the knife, but would "fix" it for a charge. This knife was too expensive (and allegedly of professional quality) to have the edge crack - let me emphasize that it was not used improperly or used to cut anything that it was not meant to cut. So, if you need/want a "quality" knife from a "quality" seller, this is not for you! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful *by W***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2022* Ceviche time baby!!!!!!!!!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/141134688-yoshihiro-mizuyaki-blue-high-carbon-steel-black-forged-gyuto-japanese](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/141134688-yoshihiro-mizuyaki-blue-high-carbon-steel-black-forged-gyuto-japanese) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
