They were one of the first Japanese companies to prove stainless steel knives could be just as effective as carbon steel for culinary use, and their passion for melding traditional Japanese techniques with modern industrial technology has won them multiple international design awards. The \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTOJIRO \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eClassic range features stamped blades with a core of hard VG10 steel (58±1 on the Rockwell Scale), clad with softer stainless steel. This double-sided santoku is thinner and more flexible than more traditional forged blades, with a smaller, straighter blade than a classic chef’s knife, which makes it easier to lift off the chopping board for more agile cutting. It can be used for a wide variety of kitchen prep, be it meat, fish or vegetables. The riveted Western-style handle, made from ultra-durable resin composite, is ergonomic for a comfortable grip. The knife’s full-tang construction enhances blade-to-handle balance and sturdiness. It is built to withstand many years of regular use in home and restaurant kitchens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with all Japanese knives, they must be used with care – make sure to avoid tough impact with bones and frozen food.
