Tojiro DP Vegetable Knife, 16.5 cm, 3 layers

Tojiro DP Vegetable Knife – extraordinary sharpness for vegetables

The Tojiro DP Vegetable Knife with a 16.5 cm blade is a professional tool for precise handling of vegetables and fruit. It stands out for its impressive hardness of 60 HRC and is constructed with 3-layer laminated steel, where the hard core ensures long-lasting sharpness. The knife achieves a perfect balance between strength and flexibility, making it ideal for both precision cutting and heavier chopping work.

Ideal for chopping, slicing and dividing larger vegetables, fruits and herbs with precision and control.

Japanese engineering in the kitchen

Tojiro employs a patented technique called "Decarburization Prevention" (DP), which retains maximum carbon content in the steel during the forging process. This gives the knife an exceptional hardness of 60 HRC, maintaining its edge significantly longer than ordinary knives. The 3-layer construction combines the hard core material with more flexible outer layers, providing a perfect balance between sharpness and durability. The bolster ensures a smooth transition between blade and handle, improving both hygiene and strength.

Eco-friendly design with professional performance

The handle is made from ECO-Wood – compressed wood fibres from recycled timber. This material is not only eco-friendly but also extremely stable, as it does not loosen at the rivets and holds its shape perfectly during use. Weighing 270 grams, the knife has a weight that provides excellent control and stability during cutting. The black finish on the handle gives an elegant, professional appearance, whilst the perfect balance between blade and handle reduces strain on the wrist during extended use.

Technical specifications

The 16.5 cm blade length provides good reach even for larger vegetables, whilst the broad blade makes it easy to scoop up and transfer the cut ingredients. The knife weighs 270 grams, providing good heft for cutting without feeling heavy. The steel's hardness of 60 HRC ensures long-lasting sharpness, but also requires proper maintenance. Please note that the knife is not dishwasher safe, as this will impair both sharpness and durability.
