Trade in gyuto in great condition with box but not original inner sleeve. This stainless clad carbon steel core gyuto shows some signs of use via some oxidation on the shirogami 2 hagane core. The edge is in great condition, free from indications of prior damage. 

This knife feels robust but grinds down to the thin edge, but after a few sharpenings, the thinness has tempered. This is a good candidate for a workhorse white steel as long as basic precautions are taken.

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and dried immediately after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

Twisting, scraping, and heavy use, as well as use on hard and very dense objects can lead to edge damage. Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most Japanese knives perform best at a finer finish starting around 4000. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Ceramic honing rods are preferred.
