Tojiro DP Paring Knife - Precision in a Compact Design
This 12 cm paring knife from the Tojiro DP series combines a hard VG10 core steel with "13-chrome stainless steel" on both sides, creating a 3-layer construction with a hardness of 60 HrC. The knife's ECO-Wood handle is made from compressed wood fibers sourced from recycled wood, ensuring a stable grip and high durability.
Ideal for peeling, garnishing, and precision tasks with smaller ingredients in the kitchen.
Advanced steel technology for superior sharpness
Tojiro employs a patented technique known as Decarburization Prevention (DP) during forging, which preserves the maximum carbon content in the steel even at high temperatures. This results in a blade that stays sharp longer, giving you precise cuts every time. The three-layer construction combines the best of both worlds: the extreme hardness of the VG10 core steel and the rust-resistant surface of the surrounding steel.
Thoughtful design for professional use
The knife's bolster seamlessly integrates with the blade, preventing dirt from accumulating between the blade and handle—an important detail for maintaining good kitchen hygiene. The compressed ECO-Wood handle is particularly resistant to moisture and retains its shape perfectly, even after prolonged use. Weighing in at 110 grams, the knife offers a well-balanced weight for excellent control during precision tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I best maintain my Tojiro DP knife?
Always wash the knife by hand with mild soapy water and dry it thoroughly after use. The knife can be honed on a honing steel between sharpenings to maintain sharpness.
What does 60 HrC mean?
HrC stands for the Rockwell C scale, which measures the hardness of steel. 60 HrC indicates a very hard steel that stays sharp for a long time but requires careful handling.
