With very, very few exceptions, no other knives offer the breadth of patterns, quality of construction and high levels of performance that are presented in the Tojiro DP family of knives. High-end VG-10 steel is found in the core of this series which has been treated to provide excellent sharpness, edge retention, and ease of maintenance. These qualities make the Tojiro DP line one of the best options for cooks interested in sampling Japanese performance cutlery for the first time. Western handles on the DP series are rendered in black stamina wood and are seamlessly integrated with the tang and bolster. Indeed, the bolster’s curved transition into the blade make this knife equally comfortable in a pinch or racquet grip. One would be hard pressed to find knives that are constructed with the same attention to performance and quality at similar prices.

The Tojiro DP 180mm gyuto is an excellent knife for those who want the versatility provided by a gyuto pattern but are either lacking copious work space or prefer smaller knives for the heightened dexterity. While a standard length for many Western chef knives, 180mm is considered small for a Japanese gyuto.

  • Weight: 6.4 ounces
  • Blade Length: 180 mm
  • Overall Length: 305 mm
  • Spine Thickness at the Heel: 1.7 mm
  • Blade Height at the Heel: 43.7 mm

      Great knife
    Posted By: Dino - verified customer

    Fabulous knife! Considered on the short side by Japanese experts but is plenty long for me. Cuts through things like an orange or tomato or green onions like butter. I finally decided to spend the bucks for a really good knife (though many others are way more expensive) and for me this knife is amazing and who could want more? Don't spend more! This one is perfect!

    I am an absolute beginner and these knives were recommended by a friend as a great value for the quality. I took them to my first class and the instructors were very impressed. Will definitely be buying more of these to fill out my set.

      it's a gift... but had to try it .......
    Posted By: Donald Ware - verified customer

    I bought this knife for a Christmas gift. Wanted something nice. I had a budget and my friend might not know how to take care of a non stainless blade. I have 4 nice knives that I bought here and use many times per week. That I Love !!!!!! This was 1/2 what I paid for any of my beloved knives. I wanted to hone it for him. This knife is Very sharp out of the box !!!!! I just gave it 3 or 4 passes on a leather strop. ( I just had to try it ....... ) This knife is a Laser just like the video. It cut tomatoes !!! It's lightweight and nice med. size. Would be great for breaking down a chicken or doing veggies. ( I kind of want one now ..... But I already have some Great knives LOL !!!!! )

      First and only great knife

    My brother in law is a chef and when he heard how bad my knives were he recommended if I could buy just one good knife this should be the one. I'm liking the knife for sure.

      Happy Customer !
    Posted By: James Heath - verified customer

    Making this purchase was a very good choice for my first Japanese kitchen knife. The knife will arrive very sharp and you will instantly look in your pantry or fridge for something to slice. This knife looks sweet and will make quick work of any meal prep. You can't go wrong with this purchase.

    Came as sharp as the R-2 chef knife. I'll see if the edge holds as long compared to the powdered metal of the R2/SG2 steel knife.

    I think for the price this knife is alright. I needed a quick sturdy replacement of a German knife. I don't like the edge retention so you need to sharpen often. Doesn't measure up to some of the other knives available on this site. Good for a quick replacement but it may be worth saving a little more money and getting a higher quality steel and blade design.

      my favorite knives
    Posted By: Bob Rich - verified customer

    I run a knife sharpening business and have purchased several of these knives. Although they arrive exceptionally sharp I give them my best hand sharpening and then pass them on to my customers for cost plus sharpening. My customers love the knife and I'll get to sharpen them again and again. My little annuity program. Thanks Mark for bringing these great knives to us.

      My favourite knife for 10 years
    Posted By: Max - verified customer

    I got this knife 10 years ago and it is by far the best and sharpest knife I have. Sharpen it regularly (it is easier to keep an edge then to build it back up) and don't give it to people who use it to crush chicken bones. I forgot the name (the old model only has it in Japanese) and I am soo happy to find it here. Extremely good value!

      Excellent
    Posted By: Alex - verified customer

    This knife is great! Was looking for Japanese steel that I could use during service instead of my (Tojiro) carbon steel. This knife is even sharper, well balanced and came verrry sharp out of the box. The packaging was great, and the knife came in a very timely fashion. Very very satisfied with this purchase, and the price is on point. Tojiro is a stellar brand, and with this value and consistency, I will keep purchasing their products.

    This is a very good knife and cuts like a laser. It is worth more than it costs. I may be getting more from this maker.

    I admit to being somewhat skeptical because of the price, as we have some very expensive top of the line knives in our kitchen. This equals the others' performance, and I mean solidly equals. It sharpens easily, and holds an edge. We have budgeted for replacing about 15 knives next year. We're going with Tojiro. Sometimes there are real values in this world. Thank you Tojiro. I do feel it's unfair to call this entry level or a good introduction because this is the real deal--what I've come to expect from the fin Japanese artisans.

    F&F is just ok but it's also not the most expensive knife. After reading reviews I expected a little more sharpness ootb but after I opened it up there was no problem with getting a nice edge on it. A little lighter than expected but will make for a good little line knife where space is limited.

    Shipping was amazingly fast and allowed me to get it just in time for someones birthday.Amazingly sharp right out of the case. I let it go while resting it on a tomato and it fell right through! The knife is also very comfortable in my hand for periods of time.

    Great out of the box but needs to be sharpened. It has a weight to it at first which turns into being helpful with the heavier prep which it is sometimes meant for(pumpkin.) Handle is comfortable but not amazing. Its great for working in small spaces.

    Great little knife. Very sharp edge out of the box, and the handle is much better than I expected after hearing that the handles on the DP line are too boxy. This is a good length if you want a nice agile knife with the shape of a gyuto but the size of a utility knife. I would definitely consider buying another knife from this series in the future.Service was excellent as well, and shipping was very fast.

    Good knife overall. I bought it for a gift, and although it's too small for me, it came sharp and does the job for the person intended. I was thinking about the Santoku, but I feel this shape is more useful.
