Review: Acciaio VG10 e qualità giapponese: un coltello che vale ogni centesimo - Allora ragazzi, parliamoci chiaro: questo Tojiro è un coltello che ti fa capire subito la differenza tra un attrezzo da cucina e uno strumento professionale. Partiamo dal cuore del discorso: l'acciaio VG10. Per chi non lo sapesse, stiamo parlando di uno degli acciai giapponesi più apprezzati nel mondo dei coltelli. È un acciaio inossidabile ad alto contenuto di carbonio, legato con cobalto e molibdeno, che gli conferisce una durezza eccezionale mantenendo al contempo una buona resistenza alla corrosione. I tre strati (VG10 al centro e acciaio inox sui lati) non sono solo marketing: offrono il giusto equilibrio tra affilatura estrema e praticità d'uso quotidiano. Appena scartato, la prima cosa che noti è quanto sia affilato. Non sto scherzando, è MOLTO più tagliente di qualsiasi coltello europeo tu possa aver usato. La leggerezza poi ti spiazza all'inizio, ma dopo due giorni ti chiedi come hai fatto a lavorare con quei mattoni tedeschi. Il bilanciamento è perfetto e il manico, seppur essenziale, è comodo e sicuro. Ora, parliamo senza peli sulla lingua: non è perfetto per tutti. Se sei abituato ai coltelli western style pesanti, dovrai fare un po' di adattamento. Inoltre, essendo VG10, richiede più attenzione nella manutenzione: niente lavastoviglie (mai!), asciugare subito dopo il lavaggio e affilare con pietre giapponesi da almeno 3000 grit per mantenere quel filo incredibile. Rapporto qualità-prezzo? Assolutamente imbattibile. A questa fascia di prezzo trovi davvero pochi rivali, e quelli che ci sono spesso vengono dalla Cina. Questo invece è made in Japan vero, Tojiro è un'azienda seria che lavora a Tsubame-Sanjo, zona storica per la coltelleria giapponese. In conclusione: se cerchi un coltello da chef che ti duri una vita, con un acciaio di primissima qualità e prestazioni professionali senza spendere 300€, questo Tojiro DP è la risposta. Fidatevi di uno che di coltelli ne ha provati parecchi: questo merita assolutamente 5 stelle.
Review: Absolutely love this knife - Update: Oct 2020 - Wow I've had this knife since 2015 and it's been with me through multiple house moves and even a cross country move. By now all the lettering on the knife is long gone. The blade has certainly dulled through use. I've been sharpening this knife at home with a handheld sharpening steel and it's kept up. It has developed a few minor chips. Just dropped it off at a professional knife sharpening service so I will see how it performs when it comes back! Absolutely love this knife. I researched for hours what kind of gyuto I wanted to add to my my home kitchen and finally decided on the Tojiro DP 8 inch (210 mm or 21cm) because of the great reviews and excellent steel of the blade. A gyuto knife is simply the Japanese equivalent of the Western chef knife and is an all-purpose knife used for cutting meat, fish, and vegetables. I found the Tojiro to fit very well in my hands. I have small to medium sized hands and these fit very nicely. Not too heavy and the grip is solid. The handle is of a Western style and is not one of those lightweight cheap plastic handles. The blade is constructed of a very, very sharp VG-10 core steel with a spine thickness of 1.9mm. I've worked with Globals and also have a Kyocera ceramic and this knife is the knife I grab when I'm in the kitchen. Coming in at 7.2 oz it's heavier than my Global and Kyocera ceramic, but it's definitely much lighter than the Wusthof Ikon that I've handled and Western knives. The Tojiro handles meat with ease. Cuts through chicken and beef with minimal effort and I can make paper thin cuts of steak. It's also great for cutting green onions, brown onions, broccoli, napa cabbage, etc. It's sharp! I'm not experienced with sharpening knives, and hopefully someday I will learn but another reason I chose the Tojiro was because it's a great beginner's knife to learn how to sharpen on a whetstone. I've looked into so many Japanese gyutos and finally came back to this one because of everyone's recommendations and I can't be more happy about my decision. I've looked into many higher priced Japanese knives such as Shun, but because they are technically made of the same VG-10 steel and the Shun Classic line was also a lot more expensive I felt that the Tojiro fit the budget and has by far exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend and I'd say if you're looking for your first gyuto get the Tojiro DP! You can't go wrong with the price and quality!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Dishwasher safe?**
A: You should never put quality knives in the dishwasher. The documentation that comes with the knife tells you not to do this but that's not specific to this knife. Any knife with quality steel and a sharp edge will be degraded, over time, by the heat cycles and the detergent. Knives are like the easiest things in the world to clean anyway. Wipe with sponge, wipe with towel, and you're done. Knives don't ever collect anything that is hard to get off (or if so then you're using it for something you shouldn't be).

**Q: The white square on the handle, is that a sticker? Can it be removed?**
A: Sticker that can be removed.

**Q: Is this knife made in Japan?**
A: If it was really made in Japan, then Japan may as well do a hara-kiki with this knife. Iam in the market forthe kitchen knife and in the last couple of months I tried a couple of dosen of them, openly made in China, Made in Japan and pretending to be made in Japan. Knifes, made in Japan is not advertised this way, they aren't  packed in the fancy papers and false "sandal" wood boxes and they always have every bit of the surface polished, wood or metal. This is 100% false product with the false ad technic. Just check the ads by real Japanese companies like Shun, for example. The philosophy is different, ther approach is different and the knifes are different. The only thing this knife has, which makes it look like "made in Japan" is the price. By the way, there no words "made in Japan" anywhere on the package or the knife. Just send it back.

**Q: Double or Single bevel?**
A: It is a double bevel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Parfait
*by B***A on 24 November 2015*

Simplement excellent : - pris en main impeccable - lame extrêmement occupante - bon rapport qualité prix - usure correct - pas très lourd - design élégant ( je suis chef cuisinier, produit validé pas l'équipe) On noteras quand même l'attente de 45 jours pour le recevoir, mais bon ( produit venus du Japon ).. donc l"attente est long mais très vite compensé par la satisfaction d'avoir un couteau génial en main.
