Tojiro Fujitora Classic DP VG10 Gyuto 210mm

Fujitora and Tojiro are brands made by the same manufacturer. Fujitora knives are sold domestically in Japan (JDM) whereas Tojiro knives are meant for export markets. 

The Tojiro (Fujitora) Gyuto 210mm - now part of the newly renamed Tojiro Classic series (previously it was called DP series) - has long been one of the most trusted gateways into Japanese cutlery for both chefs and home cooks. With a VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel core clad in softer stainless steel, it delivers exceptional sharpness, impressive edge retention, and an ease of sharpening that has made TOJIRO a favourite in professional kitchens.

This gyuto is a slightly heavier by Japanese standards, yet notably lighter and more agile than most Western chef knives. Its blade length - at 210 mm - makes it a natural step up for anyone accustomed to an 8" Western blade, offering increased versatility without feeling unwieldy. The resin handle and stainless steel bolster provide a comfortable, secure grip and a clean, durable finish that holds up beautifully to daily use.

Inspired by the classic European chef knife, the gyuto is the ultimate all-purpose blade. Whether you’re slicing proteins, breaking down vegetables, or working through long prep sessions, the knife moves effortlessly through a wide range of tasks and cutting styles. For anyone seeking a reliable, stainless, and remarkably high-performing Japanese knife at a sensible price, the Tojiro Classic Gyuto stands out as one of the best values available today.
