Swedish stainless steel is esteemed for its ease of sharpening, ability to take on a fine edge, and resistance to rust and corrosion. The thinness behind the edge and convex geometry helps blaze through the densest ingredients with little resistance, yet despite its thinness is durable enough to use as a workhorse knife. 

Cooks in professional kitchens who want a premium cutting experience without the maintenance hassle involved with carbon steel will find owning a Konosuke Swedish Stainless Steel to be a very enjoyable experience, as will home cooks who have experience with stainless steel knives and are looking for something a little unique.

A chef's knife ('Gyuto' in Japanese) is the most versatile blade that can handle almost anything in the kitchen. Their shape and often generous edge length mean that whether it's cutting small tomatoes or portioning a large roast, you can do it with one blade. Most cooks have multiple chef's knives and it is not hard to justify getting one more when it has so much utility.
