Not at all. A 24cm Gyuto is popular with home cooks who regularly prepare family meals or larger cuts of meat. The longer blade allows for smoother, more efficient slicing while remaining versatile for everyday use.
What makes SG2 steel better than regular stainless steel?
SG2 steel offers superior edge retention, hardness, and wear resistance compared to most standard stainless steels. This means the knife stays sharper for longer while delivering exceptional cutting performance.
Why do Miyabi Birchwood knives have a Damascus pattern?
The 101-layer Damascus steel creates the distinctive flowing pattern found on every Miyabi Birchwood knife. It also adds strength to the blade while showcasing traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

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.
