Chef's knife with 37 layers of damask steel - precision in the kitchen

The Tojiro Pro DP chef's knife, featuring a 21 cm blade length, blends Japanese craftsmanship with modern technology.

The black ECO handle with bolster ensures excellent balance and a comfortable grip during use.

Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts who value precision when slicing meat, fish, and vegetables, where the cut surface impacts the final result.

Japanese precision technology that maintains sharpness

The core of this chef's knife is VG10 steel, which, through Tojiro's patented DP technology (Decarburization Prevention), retains maximum carbon content during forging. This results in an exceptional hardness of 60 HrC without compromising flexibility. The damask pattern—a technique originally used for sword blades—not only creates the distinctive pattern on the blade but also enhances the knife's strength and resistance to wear.

Perfect balance between sharpness and handling

Weighing 290 grams and equipped with an ergonomic ECO handle, the knife feels great in the hand. The bolster ensures a smooth transition between the blade and handle, providing optimal control during cutting tasks. The balance is meticulously calibrated, allowing you to work precisely and steadily even during extended use. The 21 cm long blade is perfect for most kitchen tasks, offering good reach without being unwieldy.

Maintaining your quality knife

To preserve the knife's quality and sharpness, it requires proper maintenance. Always hand wash the knife with mild soap, dry it thoroughly after use, and store it in a dry place. The high hardness means the knife remains sharp for a long time, but it should be handled with care—avoid hard materials like bones and dropping it on floors. Regular use of wet sharpening is recommended to maintain optimal sharpness.

With the Tojiro Pro DP chef's knife, you get:

• Exceptional sharpness and precision thanks to 37 layers of damask steel
• Durable cutting performance with VG10 steel and 60 HrC hardness
