Xinzuo Chef Knife* Review 440C Steel - Yun Series (Gyuto*)

This video is about the Xinzuo 440C Chef's knife, it is sold as a Chef's knife, so I expected a western-style chef's knife. However, the blade profile weight and thinness of the blade indicate that this is a Gyuto, a Japanese adaption of the western chef's knife.

N O T E S: While the knife is sold as a chef knife, it is more like a Gyuto, so a Japanese adaption of the western chef's knife.
