Damascus steel with extraordinary durability

The 37 layers of steel in this Tojiro knife are forged together using the traditional Damascus technique, originally employed in 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 that holds its edge far longer than conventional knives. At the same time, the layered construction provides a flexibility that makes the knife less prone to breaking during use.

Perfect balance and control in the kitchen

Weighing 260 grams with an 18 cm blade, this chef's knife has the ideal size and weight for everyday use. The thoughtfully designed bolster and carefully calibrated balance between blade and handle give you full control over every cutting motion. The ECO handle sits comfortably in the hand and provides a secure grip, even during demanding cutting tasks. The result is more consistent cuts that look professional and cook evenly.

Frequently asked questions

How do I care for my Tojiro chef's knife?
Always wash the knife by hand with mild soap and dry it immediately afterwards. Avoid the dishwasher, as it can damage both the edge and the handle. Sharpen the knife regularly to maintain its edge.

Can this knife be used on bones and frozen foods?
No, hard Japanese knives like this one should not be used on bones or frozen foods, as this can damage the edge. Use a heavier knife for those purposes instead.
