Как мы подготовили этот материал
Covers 8-inch-class (200-216mm blade) Western-profile chef's knives and gyutos a buyer typically cross-shops in 2026, spanning German stamped/forged workhorses, Japanese laminated-steel gyutos, and DTC challenger brands. blade_length_mm is the manufacturer-stated blade length in millimeters (not overall length); where a brand's own spec sheet states a length that differs from its marketing name (e.g. an '8-inch' knife specced at 8.5in), the stated spec is used and the discrepancy is flagged in provenance. steel_type is the alloy/composition as published by the brand (proprietary names like CROMOVA 18 or ACUTO440 are kept verbatim since they are not fungible with generic equivalents). hardness_hrc is the manufacturer- or retailer-published Rockwell hardness; where only a range is published, the midpoint is used and the full range is noted in provenance; null if no figure is published anywhere found. Independent lab-measured hardness (e.g. TechGearLab's own Rockwell testing) frequently reads lower than the manufacturer's spec-sheet figure — both numbers are cited in provenance where available rather than silently choosing one. handle_material is the primary handle material/construction as published. edge_angle_degrees is the factory edge angle per side in degrees as published; where a brand publishes a range or an asymmetric bevel, a representative single figure is used and the exact figure/range is preserved in provenance; null if never published. weight_grams is the knife's own weight (not shipping weight) in grams, preferring a directly-stated gram/ounce figure over a 'shipping weight' figure, which tends to run 30-80g heavier due to packaging; where sources disagree by more than a few grams, the primary source's figure is used and the spread is noted in provenance. full_tang is true only when the brand describes an exposed, handle-length steel tang; knives whose own documentation calls out a 'concealed', 'rat-tail', or 'composite' tang are recorded false even when marketed loosely as 'full tang', with the exact wording preserved in provenance. blade_finish is a short free-text description of the blade's construction/finish (forged vs. stamped, cladding, hand-honing, etc.). priceUsd is a US list/MSRP price for the base configuration (single knife, cheapest handle/color where variants exist); where fetched pages would not statically expose a price (a JS-rendered storefront) and no other retail listing could be confirmed, priceUsd is null rather than guessed, per priceNote. Every product was checked against at least one primary retailer/manufacturer page; most carry a second, independently-fetched corroborating source (an independent test lab, a second retailer, or a specialist importer) — omitted only where a second usable source could not be reached.
