Description
The RÈN Byakko 白虎 Gyuto 210mm embodies strength, precision, and refined craftsmanship. Inspired by the legendary White Tiger of Japanese mythology, this blade features a striking Kurozome Damascus finish paired with durable SLD steel, offering excellent edge retention and a confident cutting experience.
SLD steel offers excellent wear resistance and edge retention with easier maintenance compared to traditional carbon steels. The core is wrapped in stainless Damascus cladding that enhances food release, protects the cutting edge, and adds a refined, layered appearance to the blade.
Designed as a versatile all-purpose gyuto, the 210mm profile delivers smooth control for both professional kitchens and passionate home cooks, while the dark Damascus pattern gives each blade a bold and distinctive presence.
SLD steel is a high-performance, Japanese “semi-stainless” tool steel developed by Hitachi Metals, often used in high-end kitchen knives and cutting tools for its superior edge retention and durability. With a hardness of 60–62 HRC, it acts as an upgraded D2 steel, offering excellent wear resistance while being easier to sharpen than many fully stainless steels.
