Iron Multi-Clad

244x60mm gyuto in White 2 core with multi-layer nickel and iron cladding

Convex grind with thin edge and sharp distal taper for ultimate performance. Polished spine and choil with satin, hand polished bevels with some forge finish above. Etched to highlight the steel pattern. The Iron layers have a lovely gradient from dark to light rising from the edge, my favourite cladding to date. 

The handle is deep purple Camatillo with heirloom fit brass bolster.
