Tojiro Pro DP Santoku 17 cm – precision in every cut
This Tojiro Pro DP Santoku knife, crafted from 37 layers of Damascus steel, combines Japanese artisan tradition with modern technology. With a blade length of 17 cm and a hardness of 60 HRC, the knife delivers exceptional sharpness and durability. The black ECO handle ensures a comfortable grip during all types of cooking.
Ideal for precision work with vegetables, fruit, and smaller cuts of meat and fish, where the wide blade provides excellent control and stability.
Japanese quality steel with superior sharpness
The VG10 steel core is surrounded by 36 protective layers, giving the knife both strength and flexibility. The Damascus pattern is not merely aesthetically pleasing with its distinctive wave design – the technique originally derives from the forging of sword blades. Tojiro's patented DP technology (Decarburization Prevention) ensures maximum carbon content in the steel during forging, resulting in exceptional sharpness and cutting performance.
Perfect balance and precise control
Weighing 250 grams, the knife sits comfortably in the hand and provides the right balance between control and power. The wide blade is particularly well suited to sweeping cut ingredients aside, and the ergonomic ECO handle ensures a secure grip even during extended use. The bolster-free design allows you to make full use of the entire blade length and work closer to the chopping board.
