I will explain why and how to choose a Japanese Gyuto or Wa-Gyuto knife.
The Gyuto is basically the Japanese version of the western chef's knife. The Gyuto is originally created because of the western influence on Japanese cuisine; back in the days, they ate fish and vegetables, and beef was unheard of. So they sold single bevel blades with high carbon materials since they also did not have a fridge back then. Everything has changed, and you can see more western people becoming interested in Japanese knives and Gyuto's when the Japanese started making fusion knives to accommodate every cook.
