Justin
Named for a former chef turned restauruer Justin Hershey, the Justin is a hardworking, well-balanced Gyuto that’s built to handle just about anything you throw at it. With its roots in the classic Western chef’s knife, the Japanese Gyuto is a true all-purpose blade — and this one is forged to deliver both precision and durability in equal measure.
-
8” Go Mai Blade, Full Tang – Crafted from five-layer laminate steel: a tough 52100 high carbon core for sharpness and edge retention, wrapped in 410 stainless with a nickel shim for added strength and subtle shine.
-
Classic Gyuto Shape – Slightly curved belly for easy rocking cuts, with a fine tip for detail work. Ideal for slicing meats, breaking down fish, chopping vegetables, and everything in between.
-
Chef-Proven Versatility – Named after someone who worked the line day in, day out — this knife’s got real kitchen roots and the performance to match.
-
Full Tang Construction – Solid, balanced, and built for serious use, whether you’re prepping dinner or pushing through a full-service night.
The Justin is a go-to blade that doesn’t need to show off — it just shows up, stays sharp, and gets the job done right.
Hand wash only with water and mild detergent. Towel dry.
