Damask steel with extraordinary durability
The 37 layers of steel in this Tojiro knife are forged together using the traditional damask technique, originally used for sword making. The core consists of VG10 steel, which, through Tojiro's patented DP technique (Decarburization Prevention), retains maximum carbon content during forging. This results in an exceptional hardness of 60 HrC, which maintains sharpness longer than standard knives. Meanwhile, the layers provide flexibility, making the knife less likely to break during use.
Perfect balance and control in the kitchen
With a weight of 260 grams and a blade length of 18 cm, this chef's knife is the ideal size and weight for daily use. The thoughtfully designed bolster and carefully weighted balance between the blade and handle give you complete control over your cutting motion. The ECO handle feels comfortable in your hand and provides a secure grip, even during demanding cutting tasks. The result is more consistent slices that look professional and cook evenly.
