This profile pairs the general-purpose body of a gyuto with a clipped K-tip point and flatter edge, optimising the blade for push-cutting, long slicing strokes, and detailed work such as scoring or picking. The 240mm size provides ample length for processing larger ingredients while maintaining control during deliberate precision tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAogami Super carbon steel achieves high hardness and edge retention, requiring regular drying and light oiling to prevent rust as the blade lacks stainless cladding. The san-mai construction features a Kurouchi finish on the upper section and exposed Damascus iron on the bevel. An octagonal stabilised birch burl handle offers intricate grain patterns and enhanced durability through resin impregnation. Weighing between 189g and 220g with a heel height of 48mm to 50mm, this knife presents specific physical characteristics for users evaluating balance and clearance. The reactive nature of the iron cladding and carbon core necessitates immediate cleaning and drying after each use to maintain the blade's condition and artistic appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hatsukokoro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48314180042973,"sku":"HT-SHKASDKU-GY240-BR","price":17392.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/HatsukokoroShinkiroAogamiSuperGyuto240mmDamascusKurouchiBirchHandlea.jpg?v=1785815421","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.com.tw\/en\/products\/hatsukokoro-shinkiro-aogami-super-gyuto-240mm-damascus-kurouchi-birch-handle","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
