Tojiro Classic 5 Piece Knife Set / Santoku with Magnetic Knife Block / Oak

Since 1953, Tojirohas producedhigh-quality cutlery in Tsubame-sanjo, a craft centre in Japan specialising in metallurgy. They were one of the first Japanese companies to prove stainless steel knives could be just as effective as carbon steel for culinary use, and their passion for melding traditional Japanese techniques with modern industrial technology has won them multiple international design awards. The Tojiro Classic range features stamped bladeswith a core of hardVG10 steel (58’1 on the Rockwell Scale), clad with softer stainless steel. These double-sided blades are thinner and more flexible than more traditional forged blades. The riveted Western-style handles, made from ultra-durable resin composite, are ergonomicfor a comfortable grip. The knives’ full-tang constructionenhances blade-to-handlebalance and sturdiness. They are built to withstand many years of regular use in home and restaurant kitchens.TheTojiro Classic 5-Piece Knife Set includes a17cmsantokuknife, a 21.5cmbread knife, a 21cm carving knife,a15cmutility knife, a9cmparing knife, and amagnetic oak knife blockfrom Zassenhaus.
