Tojiro
Tojiro is one of the few manufacturers in Japan that performs all of its manufacturing processes in-house. They choose this path of integrated in-house production, from the careful selection of materials to after-sale service. As a result, they can deliver high quality because they are committed to being directly involved in every aspect of making their knives.
VG10 Stainless Steel:
VG10, a cutlery grade stainless steel produced in Japan. It has a high carbon content, which allows it to be heat treated to higher hardness levels, thus allowing the blade to take on finer, sharper edges whilst being able to maintain that edge for prolonged periods of time. It’s easy to maintain stainless steel with a great balance between edge retention, sharpness and durability.
Most Japanese knives are made with much harder steel than their Western counterparts. Harder steel can be sharpened much sharper and hold an edge for long periods. Never cut through bones, frozen foods, butternut stems, lemongrass, etc. This can result in a chipped blade. Hard steel is much more delicate than softer steel.

Sujihiki
Sujihiki Knife (筋引き出刃 – pronounced: Sujihiki Bōchō) literally translated from Japanese means ‘flesh slicer’. The name insinuates that it is perfect for slicing or carving meat which it was designed for initially. This is a composite between a Yanagiba and a Western-style carving knife.
The Sujihiki’s long, double bevelled blade allows for pull cutting in one clean motion using the blade from heel to tip. The length of the blade is perfect to cut up, carve or even butcher small to medium size animals or cuts of meat. The Sujihiki is also perfect for trimming sinew and fat from meat and filleting and skinning fish.
The Sujihiki has a relatively long and narrow blade with an acute edge angle with a narrow heel height. These components reduce the effort to cut through ingredients. For this reason, it is best to use a blade that is as long as your workspace will allow. The combination of cutting technique, acute blade angle, and sharp edge result in very little cellular damage in the cut surface.
Best for: Meat, Fish
