Tojiro VG-10 Gyuto DP Hammered 240mm (9.5")
TOJIRO Gyuto DP Hammered 240mm (9.5") is a new budget superstar from the hands TOJIRO's blacksmiths. TOJIRO's secret recipe of hardening VG-10 steel doesn't disappoint with this line of hammered kuro-uchi knives either. The knife is very sharp out-of-the-box and is ready to make some (precise) damage to the food you're about to prepare. Gyuto, or Chef's knife, is a multi-purpose Japanese kitchen knife that will shine with all kinds of chopping, slicing and rocking motions on the kitchen board - at home, as well as in a professional kitchen.
The VG-10 core, clad into a layer of softer stainless steel, is hardened to 61 HRC. Not a super hard knife, but this also means it is not a very sensitive blade, so you'll get a good ratio of edge retention and not needing to worry about chipping the blade very easily. The looks on TOJIRO's new line is simply stunning - you'll marvel at the beautiful hammer dents on the blade coupled with a rustic looking kuro-uchi finish. Hammer dents also have a function, they help with the food release.
A durable stamina wood handle is used, allowing for an ergonomic and fatigue-less grip. It features a stainless bolster and three rivets for a secure handle fixation, reducing the possibility for cracks in the handle.
ABOUT TOJIRO:
TOJIRO is one of the top 5 largest Japanese kitchen knife manufacturers, with headquarters in Niigata. They are renowned across Japan and internationally for their top-quality knives for a reasonable price. TOJIRO's focus on advanced technologies, together with their insatiable dedication for constant improvements of their knives and materials, makes TOJIRO's knives a must-have in any kitchen. The company is divided into two sections: TOJIRO Factory and more recent TOJIRO ATELIER, the latter dedicated to producing elaborate custom-made knives. Visitors are welcome to visit both spaces and experience the knife manufacturing process (with all its sounds and smells) firsthand by observing the workflow from a raised catwalk. For more info on TOJIRO and it's master blacksmith Tomoo Matsumura check the video below.
