From my first glance of this beautiful knife, I knew it should be called "Gekko”, or 月光, which means "Moonlight" in Japanese. From every angle, the Gekko knife reminded me of the way that the shape and light of the Moon changes each night.
Gekko knife has a unique & beautiful Tsuchime (“Hammered pattern”) textured Damascus blade. They feature a hand sharpened and hand honed VG-10 stainless steel blade core that is clad on both sides by a 15-layer Damascus stainless steel (HRc. 60-61. 50/50 symmetrically ground double beveled edge).
Gekko knife uses a full-tang construction, and has Mahogany wood handle with a stainless steel bolster and handle rivets.
The tall blade and rounded nose / tip of the Santoku make it a versatile knife that is well suited to cutting meat, fish, or vegetables; Hence it’s name, which literally means “Three-purpose”. The Santoku is often recommended as a multi-purpose kitchen knife.

This Gekko 190mm is the perfect size for general kitchen jobs. Out of the box it was extremely sharp and has held it edge very well
Sharp right out of the box. It has stood up really well to daily use on the hot line in our commercial kitchen. The staff love it.
The chef knife is wonderful: very sharp and balanced. Best knife in my kitchen. Great company with which to do business. Item was safely wrapped and speedy delivery. Highly recommend JCK.
The overall finish is equal to a knife at four times the price, extremely sharp out of the box and of course the usual excellent service from JCK. What more do you want at this price point.
My extended family helped do some cooking over the holidays and used the knife and emmediately wanted one. They all got one for Christmas and love em!
