Satake Ame Gyuto, Chef's Knife 21 cm

Satake Ame is a beautiful series of knives with power, balance, and tradition as the guiding principles in design. The name Ame is Japanese and means rain, which inspired the blade's design. The blade's "Rain Pattern" is not only aesthetically pleasing but also ensures that ingredients such as potatoes do not stick to the blade while cutting.

The Satake Ame Gyuto is a classic long chef's knife suitable for most kitchen tasks. It features a high profile at the heel and a tapered shape towards the tip, the typical look for Gyuto models. It cuts, chops, and slices with precision—an excellent all-round knife. The high profile at the heel prevents your knuckles from hitting the cutting board while you work.
