Gyuto Aogami Damascus Red Ebony Wood Handle 

Gyuto - The essential Japanese chef’s knife, hand-forged for serious home cooks and culinary enthusiasts. Unmatched sharpness, effortless control, and timeless Japanese craftsmanship.

Expertly crafted in Japan with a Damascus for razor-sharp performance and a hand-shaped Ebony wood handle for secure, ergonomic grip. The Gyuto Aogami Damascus Red Ebony Wood Handle is perfectly balanced for demanding daily prep, offering superior edge retention and control for every task.

Japanese Double-sided Whetstone Include Non-slip Base

This set includes a double-sided sharpening stone designed for consistent, controlled sharpening. The non-slip base keeps the stone stable, helping you maintain angle and pressure—two keys to great results. Here's why it’s valuable for durability & performance:

  • Restores a crisp, lasting edge: Regular stone sharpening resets the blade’s edge geometry, bringing back smooth, effortless cutting.

  • Extends the life of the knives: Maintaining the edge on a whetstone reduces the need for aggressive grinding later, helping preserve blade thickness over time.

  • Improves cutting performance after sharpening: Expect noticeably cleaner slices, less resistance through dense ingredients, and more control for fine prep.

  • Stable, safer sharpening: The non-slip base minimizes movement, helping you sharpen more evenly and protect the blade edge from uneven wear.

Result after proper sharpening: sharper bite, smoother glide, and better edge longevity, especially important for high-performance steels like Aogami.

Daily Use & Cleaning

  • Hand wash only. Clean with mild soap and warm water immediately after use.
  • Dry right away. Never air-dry—wipe completely to prevent moisture marks and corrosion.
  • Avoid dishwashers. Heat, harsh detergents, and impact can damage the edge, handle, and finish.
  • Use proper cutting boards: wood or soft plastic. Avoid glass, granite, marble, and ceramic.

Storage

  • Store in a knife block, magnetic strip, or edge guards to protect the edge and prevent chips.
  • Keep blades separated—never toss in a drawer unprotected.

Edge Maintenance

  • Hone lightly as needed (if you use a honing rod, use gentle strokes).
  • Sharpen on the whetstone when the knife begins to slide on tomato skins or crush herbs instead of slicing cleanly.
  • After sharpening, rinse and dry the blade carefully.

What to Avoid

  • Don’t twist or pry in hard foods (bones, frozen foods, shells).
  • Don’t scrape the board with the cutting edge—use the spine instead.

Whetstone Care Guide

  • After sharpening, rinse off the slurry, wipe clean, and let the stone air dry completely in a shaded, ventilated area.
  • Avoid direct heat/sun exposure (can cause cracking).
  • Flatten the stone periodically to keep the surface even for consistent sharpening results.
