1. Tsubazo 180mm Gyuto (Chef's Knife)

The Gyuto is the Japanese equivalent of a Western chef's knife.

  • The Vibe: Your "do-it-all" workhorse.

  • Best For: Slicing meat, disjointing large poultry, and general-purpose chopping.

  • Why this size? 180mm is slightly shorter than the standard 210mm, making it feel more nimble and less intimidating if you have a smaller cutting board or limited counter space.

2. Tsubazo 165mm Nakiri (Vegetable Knife)

The Nakiri is easily recognized by its flat, rectangular blade and blunt tip.

  • The Vibe: The vegetable specialist.

  • Best For: Rapidly chopping, dicing, and mincing greens, onions, and tubers.

  • Why this size? Because the blade is flat, you get full contact with the cutting board without needing to "rock" the knife. It’s incredibly efficient for prep-heavy vegan or vegetarian meals.

3. Tsubazo 165mm Santoku (The "Three Virtues")

The Santoku is a hybrid design, blending elements of the Gyuto and the Nakiri.

  • The Vibe: The ultimate home-cook companion.

  • Best For: Slicing, dicing, and mincing (the "three virtues").

  • Why this size? It has a flatter edge than the Gyuto (great for push-cutting) but a slight curve at the tip (good for small rocking motions). It’s often the most comfortable "daily driver" for home kitchens.

Knife Length Primary Use Motion
Gyuto 180mm Versatile / Proteins Rocking & Slicing
Nakiri 165mm Vegetables Vertical Push-Cut
Santoku 165mm General Purpose Push-Cut & Light Rocking
