TOJIRO has spent decades building a reputation for high-performance Japanese kitchen knives that deliver far more than their price suggests, and the CLASSIC line is where that reputation was made. Formerly known as the Tojiro DP, these knives are completely unchanged — only the name is new.
The CLASSIC Steak Knife 120mm brings the same VG-10 stainless steel core and careful heat treatment that defines the line to the table setting. VG-10 takes and holds a significantly sharper edge than the stainless steel found in most steak knife sets, which means cleaner cuts, less tearing, and a noticeably better experience at the table. The tapered spine and convex grind keep the blade light and nimble, and the black micarta handle is comfortable and durable through years of regular use. If you have been making do with a set of dull steak knives, this is a serious upgrade.
Care Instructions:
Hand wash and dry promptly after use and avoid the dishwasher. The VG-10 edge is easy to maintain with occasional light sharpening on a water stone. Do not use on bones or frozen foods.
