Misono uses the highest grade Swedish carbon steel, known for its purity. The carbon steel sheets are hand forged by professionals in Sakai city, following traditional Japanese methods. The knives in the Swedish Carbon line are carefully made and adorned with an elegant dragon engraving on the face of the chef knives and slicers.

It's important to note that carbon knives are not stain resistant, so they require special care. Despite this, the gyutou knife is versatile and suitable for cutting meat, fish, and vegetables, making it perfect for Western cuisine. Japanese chef knives are lightweight and thin, with a sharper blade that maintains its edge longer than most other knives.

The Misono gyutou knife features exceptional sharpness with a 70:30 asymmetrical bevel. The sharpening is concentrated on the face of the blade at a steeper angle, creating a thin cutting edge that approaches the sharpness of a traditional Japanese single edged design.
