210mm Monolith Apex Aogami Super Wa Gyuto with Saya

Built for every kitchen.

Monolith Apex Line is where consistency meets craft. Our custom knives will always be the heart of Monolith — singular pieces where we experiment, refine, and push our craft forward — and the Apex Line exists because of that work. It takes the design principles, materials, and details we’ve developed in our customs and brings them into a consistent, reliable knife you can depend on every day.

The gyuto is a versatile all-purpose knife that excels at precise cuts, slicing, and detailed prep, making it nimble and easy to handle in any kitchen.

Each blade is made from Takefu Aogami Super steel, clad in stainless steel for protection, with a forged distal taper. Handles combine a CNC-machined brass ferrule with stabilized, locally sourced walnut for balance, durability, and timeless feel.

Custom walnut saya included

Care Note

Aogami Super is a high-carbon steel. It will naturally develop a patina with use. As with all our knives, hand-wash and dry promptly after each use, and avoid leaving it wet or in contact with acidic foods for long periods. With simple care, the blade will last a lifetime.
