The Hikari SLD Gyuto 195mm is a mid-sized all-purpose knife that balances cutting performance, durability, and ease of care.This knife features an SLD semi-stainless steel core, hardened to ~63 HRC for excellent edge retention while remaining surprisingly easy to sharpen. Though technically a semi-stainless steel, SLD is highly rust-resistant (almost stainless), making it far easier to maintain than traditional reactive steels.

Its subtle convex geometry and 12° per-side edge slices with minimal resistance, while the refined satin-polished finish reduces drag when cutting through delicate ingredients without damaging them.

For cooks who want a knife that cuts like a laser yet handles everyday kitchen use with minimal fuss, the Hikari SLD is a standout choice - offering excellent edge retention, refined polishing, and standout value.
