Ideal for precise slicing, chopping, and dicing of vegetables, herbs, and meat, the wide blade offers excellent control and stability at the workstation.
Japanese Damascus Steel Technology
The 37 layers of damascus steel in the knife are created through an intricate forging technique originally used for sword blades. Tojiro's patented DP technology (Decarburization Prevention) maximizes the carbon content in the steel during manufacturing, resulting in a blade that is both exceptionally hard (60 HrC) and flexible. This provides a sharpness that lasts longer than ordinary knives, along with a precision that makes even the most detailed cuts achievable.
Perfect Balance and Comfort
The thoughtful weight distribution of 270 grams gives the knife a natural balance that reduces fatigue during extended use. The bolster, where the blade meets the handle, is perfectly contoured to provide maximum control and safety. The ECO handle feels comfortable in hand and offers a secure grip, even when working with wet ingredients. The 17 cm long blade is carefully sized to handle both large vegetables and finer cutting tasks.
Maintaining Quality Knives
To preserve the knife's exceptional qualities, it should always be washed by hand and dried immediately after use. Avoid hard surfaces and dishwashers, as they can damage the fine edge. For regular use, professional honing is recommended to maintain optimal sharpness. With proper care, this knife will be a loyal companion in your kitchen for many years.
