Tojiro Pro DP Paring Knife - Precision in Damascus Steel
This 15 cm paring knife from the Tojiro Pro DP series is crafted with 37 layers of Damascus steel and a VG10 steel core, hardened to 60 HrC. The elegant knife combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern technology through Tojiro's patented DP technique (Decarburization Prevention), which preserves maximum carbon content during forging.
Ideal for precision tasks in the kitchen such as peeling, garnishing, and handling smaller ingredients where control and accuracy are essential.
Japanese knife artistry with extraordinary sharpness
The 37-layer Damascus steel not only gives the knife a beautiful, flowing pattern but also contributes to the blade's strength and flexibility. This forging technique, historically used for sword blades, ensures that the knife is hard enough to maintain its sharpness while still being flexible enough to withstand daily use. The VG10 steel core, hardened to 60 HrC, provides exceptional sharpness that lasts.
Perfect balance and precision in hand
Weighing 140 grams and featuring an ECO handle, the knife fits perfectly in the hand. The integrated bolster ensures a stable transition between blade and handle, providing optimal control during use. The 15 cm long blade is ideal for precision tasks where standard chef knives may feel too large and clunky. The black finish gives the knife a timeless appearance that complements any kitchen.
Maintaining your quality knife
To preserve the knife's exceptional properties, proper maintenance is required. Always wash the knife by hand—never in the dishwasher, as this can damage both the edge and the handle. Thoroughly dry the knife after use. Avoid hard materials like bones, and be cautious of drops on the floor, as the hard steel can suffer damage. Regular honing, ideally using a whetstone, will keep the knife sharp for many years of use.
With the Tojiro Pro DP paring knife, you get:
- Exceptional sharp blade made from 37-layer Damascus steel
- Perfect balance and control for precision tasks
