Gourmet 5" Japanese AUS8 Steel Chef Knife

Crafted for those who savor the finer things in life, the Gourmet 5" Chef Knife by Wild Wood Blades is made for gourmands—individuals who appreciate not only the flavor of fine food, but the tools that help bring it to life. This elegant knife blends refined craftsmanship with high-performance steel to create the perfect balance of style, control, and durability.

Forged from premium AUS8 high-carbon stainless steel, the blade showcases a stunning Tsuchime (hammered) finish that reduces drag and keeps food from sticking while slicing. With a 2" deep blade and just under 5" of cutting length, this chef knife is ideal for precision tasks like mincing herbs, slicing fruit, and crafting delicate garnishes.

The full tang construction ensures strength and stability, while the ergonomically sculpted rosewood handle resists shrinking or warping over time. Designed for all-day comfort, it allows you to work effortlessly without fatigue—whether you're prepping a gourmet dish or a quick weekday meal.
