Surprisingly, Gil is even more gifted. He’s a serious home cook. And that’s why Gil is using Syosaku Gyuto and Nakiri knives and Urushi Glass Plates.

"A gorgeous 9.5 inch Sujihiki, or flesh-slicing knife, engraved with "Asakawa" on it. Very cool that they have that (name engraving).

I've never thought of myself as a pro-cook or a chef but using the right tools makes me feel like being on the next level.

It brings me joy, the process of cooking so much more with a good knife. It turns cooking into a hobby - that's what I like about these kives from Syosaku.

These knives from Syosaku has helped elevate cooking into a hobby."

Along with his knife collection are these stainless steel knives:

Syosaku's 7-inch Gyuto knife wih premium molybdenum stainless steel.

"I sliced watermelon with a 8.3-inch Premium Molybdenum Stainless Steel Gyuto Chef Knife with great weight and balance. It's super sharp and elevates cooking from a chore to a pleasure. It handles other vegetables well with perfect balance, and of course is crazy sharp.

Highly recommended for those seeking a reliable, stylish, and sharp chef’s knife

The Syosaku Japanese Multi-Purpose Chef Knife is an exceptional tool for both professional chefs and home cooks. Its Damascus ZA18 steel with 69 layers gives it an incredibly sharp and durable edge, making precise cuts effortless. The 7-inch Santoku blade is versatile enough for chopping, slicing, and dicing a variety of ingredients.

One of the standout features is the octagonal walnut handle, which not only looks elegant but offers a comfortable and secure grip. The knife is well-balanced, and the combination of aesthetics and performance makes it a joy to use in the kitchen.

Whether you’re working with vegetables, fish, or meat, this knife delivers clean, smooth cuts every time. Its craftsmanship reflects the high standards of traditional Japanese knife-making, and it’s a worthwhile investment for anyone serious about cooking. Highly recommended for those seeking a reliable, stylish, and sharp chef’s knife.

One of my favorite.

The balance of the blade and handle is excellent

I’m using a Syosaku Damascus Santoku knife 180mm.
The thin blade is amazing. The balance of the blade and handle is excellent. You can cut effortlessly without causing strain on your foodstuff. For example, you can cut herbs and Japanese chives without crushing them at all.

"Blade runner: The Nakiri is the Japanese knife you want for vegetables

My Syosaku-Japan Nakiri knife is a true joy to use, and my go-to knife whenever I have any vegetables or meat to slice. Its razor-sharp edge and perfect balance in my hand makes slicing and dicing FUN -- it's the best way to describe the experience having such a fine tool to use in my cooking!"

"These knives from Syosaku have helped elevate cooking into a hobby.

A gorgeous 9.5 inch Sujihiki, or flesh-slicing knife, engraved with "Asakawa" on it. I've never thought of myself as a pro-cook or a chef but using the right tools makes me feel like being on the next level. It brings me joy, the process of cooking so much more with a good knife. It turns cooking into a hobby - that's what I like about these knives from Syosaku."

"Glass plates that are worthy of display as art

Because the plates are so strikingly beautiful, we haven't used them as platters to serve food we display them on stands. But it's good to know that I can use the plates like we do our collection of Japanese ceramic dishes and platters."
