Gyutou knife is the Japanese equivalent of the Western chef knife. It is a multipurpose knife and can be used for cutting meat, fish, and vegetables.

This series knives have handles inherited of Japanese knife tradition. The blade is made from Sweden cobalt alloy steel and 13 chrome stainless steel with DP clad method for strength & durability with upgraded usability.

Product Overview

The F-809 is a Tojiro DP three-layer gyuto with a cobalt-alloy and stainless-steel blade, a black wooden handle and a stainless-steel bolster. Its pointed chef-knife profile is intended for multipurpose preparation of meat, fish and vegetables.

The blade measures 9-1/4 inches and the knife is 14-1/2 inches overall. This model keeps a distinct wooden grip rather than the all-stainless handle of the F890, making handle construction a useful comparison even when the listed blade and overall lengths match.

A 9-1/4-inch blade sits within a 14-1/2-inch overall knife. Consider both measurements when choosing a cutting length, work area or storage space; the F890 offers a matching listed size with a different handle material.

F-809 knife detail

A multipurpose gyuto profile

The curved gyuto edge also supports a rocking cutting motion. The broad heel and tapering tip create a chef-knife format for meat, fish and vegetable preparation. This is a different working outline from the narrow Shirogami yanagi or a compact chicken-boning knife.

DP three-layer blade

Cobalt-alloy steel and stainless steel in DP clad construction.

Wooden handle

A strengthened black wooden handle with three visible rivets.

Stainless-steel bolster

A welded, non-seam bolster joins the blade and handle.

F-809 knife detail

A separate wooden grip

The black handle contrasts with the silver blade and bolster. Three visible rivets and the shaped grip distinguish it from the continuous all-metal appearance of the Tojiro PRO models.
