I have added 6 @huntervalleyblades gyutos on to my website, I forged these out of 52100, they have more distal taper compared to the first batch and with thinner mid section about 30-40 grams lighter . Ranging from 220mm to 262mm . 3 bocote and 3 ringed gidgee handles , still super thin behind the edge #tansuknives #huntervalley #gyuto #hammered #forged #chef #foodie #chefsroll #chefstalk #chefsofinstagram #cook #cut #kurouchi #newcastle #chop #grill #fish #sushi #bbq #lowandslow #artisan #handmade #unique #tool #patina #carbonsteel #heirloom

Back in my chef career I was always checking @goodfoodau to see their awarded restaurants lists , new trends and new names in the field . After leaving kitchens I have never thought I would see my name mentioned there in the “The Good Food top 40: the hottest people, plates and places in food right now “ list along with some legends of Australian cooking scene . Thank you
