TOJIRO has been producing world-class Japanese kitchen knives in Sanjo City for decades, and the CLASSIC line — formerly known as the Tojiro DP — delivers a level of performance that consistently surprises cooks who expect less at this price point. The knives are unchanged from the DP line. Only the name is new. If you have been researching the Tojiro DP sujihiki, this is the same knife.
The sujihiki is Japan dedicated slicing knife — long, narrow, and ground for pulling cuts that glide through proteins, fish, and roasts with minimal resistance. The CLASSIC Sujihiki 240mm sits at the shorter end of the format, making it a nimble and versatile choice for slicing duties that do not require maximum reach. It also pulls double duty as a fillet knife and handles smaller vegetable prep with ease. The VG-10 stainless core delivers exceptional sharpness and edge retention, and the impeccably convex grind keeps drag to a minimum through long slicing cuts. The black micarta handle is comfortable and well balanced.
Care Instructions:
VG-10 stainless is low maintenance but a few good habits will keep this knife at its best. Hand wash and dry promptly after use and avoid the dishwasher. Do not use on bones or frozen foods. Sharpen on quality water stones to maintain the fine edge and hone regularly between sharpenings.

Not necessarily the BEST knife out there, but definitely one, if not the BEST bang for your bucks. A good worker that does the job. Was looking for a good knife for slicing fish but wanted a double bevel knife for these tasks and this Tojiro Sujihiki fits the bill!

Awesome knife. I have had it for over a year and only recently have I fallen in love with this knife. I think heavy use and repeated sharpening has actually thinned it a tad bit and its just a pleasure to use. I can sharpen it up and use it for a few days heavy on the line, and I can still cut tomatoes with the tip because its just so darn thin. I can pull cut cold cooked chicken breast easier than I could before I beat the hell out of this thing. It's awesome.

I would like to rate this somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars actually. The knife is well constructed, but not so pretty. I still think it is a high value knife. The factory edge is not suitable for use IMO on this example. It is quite heavy behind the edge. So, after a bit of thinning and sharpening, a little handle contouring, it is a very serviceable knife. The value is in the blade, steel, and hardening. Just needs some tweaking. I recommend this knife for the cook that works the line and wants to go to the next level, or the knife person who is looking for the basis for a nice suji and doesn't mind, or enjoys tinkering. It gets, and stays, very sharp.
