The TOJIRO CLASSIC line - formerly known as the Tojiro DP - has converted more cooks from western to Japanese knives than perhaps any other single product line in the world. The formula is simple: VG10 stainless at HRC 60, san mai construction with 13-chrome stainless cladding, full tang black micarta handle with stainless bolster and three rivets, and a thin grind that puts them ahead of anything in the western category at the same price. Made in Sanjo City, Niigata Prefecture since 1955. The knives are completely unchanged from the DP line. Only the name is new.
This gift set pairs two of the most practical sizes in the CLASSIC line - a gyuto and a petty - in a presentation box suited for gifting. The combination covers the full range of kitchen prep: the gyuto handles proteins, vegetables, and board work, while the petty handles detail tasks, in-hand trimming, and smaller jobs where the gyuto is too much blade. VG10 stainless at HRC 60, san mai construction, full tang black micarta handles throughout. A complete introduction to Japanese knife performance in one package.
Care Instructions: VG10 is a fully stainless steel - low maintenance and resistant to corrosion. Hand wash and dry after each use. Avoid the dishwasher for best longevity. Do not use on bones, frozen foods, or hard crusts. Sharpen on quality water stones and hone regularly with a ceramic rod to maintain peak performance.
