Tojiro Pro DP vegetable knife with 37 layers of Damascus steel
This 16.5 cm Tojiro Pro DP vegetable knife is top-quality craftsmanship with 37 layers of Damascus steel. The blade has an impressive hardness of 60 HRC thanks to VG10 steel and Tojiro's patented DP technology (Decarburization Prevention), which preserves maximum carbon content during forging. With an ergonomic black ECO handle and a weight of 260 grams, the knife sits perfectly in the hand.
Ideal for precise chopping, slicing, and dicing of vegetables, fruits, and herbs, where the wide blade provides extra control and stability on the chopping board.
Japanese forging craft with historical roots
The Damascus layering of 37 layers of steel is a demanding technique originating from the production of traditional Japanese swords. This method gives the knife a unique combination of hardness and flexibility. The hard-tempered VG10 steel (60 HRC) ensures the knife retains its edge for a long time, while the layered structure provides stability and prevents chipping. The bolster-free design is typically Japanese and gives you full control over the knife's movements.
Professional cutting performance in your kitchen
This vegetable knife gives you a tool that makes cooking more precise and efficient. The wide blade allows you to handle larger quantities of vegetables and herbs, while the sharp edge cuts cleanly without crushing the cells of the ingredients. This preserves the flavour, texture, and nutritional value of your produce. The ergonomic handle with perfect balance minimises hand fatigue, even during extended use.
Caring for your Tojiro knife
To preserve the knife's outstanding qualities, proper maintenance is essential. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly after use. Avoid hard objects such as bones, and take care not to drop the knife, as the hard steel can be damaged. With regular use, the knife will eventually need re-sharpening, which is best done by wet sharpening to preserve the steel's properties.
With the Tojiro Pro DP vegetable knife you get:
- Extraordinary sharpness and durability thanks to 37 layers of Damascus steel
- Optimal control and balance with the ergonomic ECO handle
- Professional Japanese knife quality that elevates your culinary results
