{"product_id":"sunset-canyon-gyuto-215mm","title":"Sunset Canyon Gyuto 215mm","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA note for members: this Sunset Canyon Gyuto is pre-owned but unused. It went back to James's studio, where he gave it a complete refinish himself before it returned to Eatingtools, and it now arrives in pristine, as-new condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe flats of this blade carry two distinct textures: beneath the spine, the brass cladding remains rough and hand-hammered, catching the light unevenly between dark forge-oxidized areas, and lower on the blade that same brass eases into a smooth, burnished plane. It's the pairing that gives the Sunset Canyon Gyuto its name, and it also happens to represent the kind of build James Oatley rarely turns out these days, as the Sydney bladesmith has slowed his output to only a handful of pieces a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the brass sits a core of V-Toku2 tungsten-carbon steel, hardened to 65 HRC for an edge that holds a long, fine line of sharpness without turning brittle underfoot in a busy kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 215mm \/ 8.5\" of edge and 61mm tall at the heel, on a 370mm \/ 14.6\" overall knife, this gyuto carries real height and presence on the board. It's nicely weighted at 9.9oz \/ 280g, balancing a hair in front of the heel for a grip that feels grounded and powerful. The lower bevels are convex, meeting at a very fine, zero edge that stays precise from heel to tip. Narrowing to 2.5mm an inch from the end (against 3.5mm above the choil) the rounded, polished spine maintains the blade's overall toughness and rigidity to keep it running like a workhorse through heavier chopping and prep work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handle is Hackberry, shaped in James's symmetrical wa form around the blade's brass-clad tang. A handmade saya of quilted maple is included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Oatley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54605276578067,"sku":null,"price":4350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/1749\/8643\/files\/james-oatley-sunset-canyon-gyuto-215mm-1255661826.jpg?v=1787598251","url":"https:\/\/eatingtools.com\/products\/sunset-canyon-gyuto-215mm","provider":"Eatingtools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
