Tojiro Pro DP Paring Knife, 37 layers, 12 cm

Tojiro Pro DP paring knife – precision in 37-layer steel

This 12 cm paring knife from the Tojiro Pro DP series is crafted from 37 layers of Damascus steel with a hardness of 60 HrC. The core is made from Japanese VG10 steel, which gives the knife exceptional sharpness and durability. With its ergonomic ECO handle and perfectly balanced design, the knife sits comfortably in the hand for all types of precision work.

Ideal for peeling, decorative cutting, small cutting tasks and detailed kitchen work where precision is essential.

Japanese knife tradition meets modern technology

The Damascus forging technology, originally used in sword-making, gives the knife both hardness and flexibility. The many layers of steel not only create the characteristic pattern on the blade but also contribute to the knife's durability and cutting performance. Tojiro's patented DP technology (Decarburization Prevention) ensures maximum carbon content in the steel during the forging process, resulting in a harder blade that holds its edge for longer.

Perfect balance between craftsmanship and function

The black ECO handle with bolster not only offers a sleek appearance but also ensures a hygienic transition between blade and handle. Weighing 120 grams, the knife has the right heft for precision work without tiring the hand. The 12 cm blade is ideal for smaller tasks where a standard chef's knife might feel too large and unwieldy. The knife is handcrafted with attention to detail, including a perfect fit between bolster and handle and carefully positioned rivets for optimal balance.
