What is the difference between a Gyuto and a chef's knife?
A Gyuto is a Japanese-style chef's knife designed for many of the same tasks as a Western chef's knife. Gyuto knives are often thinner and lighter, with a flatter or more gradual blade profile that can favour precise push-cutting and slicing. The exact shape and weight vary between manufacturers and models.
Is the Miyabi 5000FCD Gyuto 20cm dishwasher safe?
No. The Miyabi 5000FCD Gyuto 20cm should be hand washed and dried immediately after use. Avoid placing the knife in a dishwasher, as high heat, detergents and contact with other utensils can damage the blade, handle or cutting edge.
What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?
Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.
We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.
Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?
We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.
Is this knife dishwasher-safe?
We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.
How should I sharpen this knife?
You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.
What’s the best way to store this knife?
Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
