Hitohira Gorobei Ren White #2 Gyuto 210mm Ho wood handle
This is a stunning 210mm Gyuto, hand crafted in Sakai, Osaka by Gorobei and sharpened by the up and coming Ren. Great balance and performance - a good looking yet very practical knife - a delight to use and to look at. These knives are at an amazing price point and I was very lucky to get them - as Sharpener Ren’s reputation grows future stocks of these knives will be significantly more expensive.

This is an high carbon steel knife, so always clean and dry it carefully - and it will love the odd coat of food friendly knife oil.
Our knives are hand-made (with natural materials like timber), so small variations to size and colour may occur.
