This **Tojiro Atelier Wenge chef's knife** is a beautiful, handmade chef's knife with traditional looks. A chef's knife is incredibly versatile. You use it when cutting vegetables, meat and fish, but also when, for instance, chopping herbs, crushing pepper corns or peeling a clove of garlic. Many people believe it to be an indispensable kitchen knife!

## Tojiro Atelier Wengé hand-forged blade

When it comes to knives, there is always a compromise between hardness (sharp, but brittle and less stainless) and flexibility (less sharp and less brittle, more stainless). Tojiro opted for a multi-layered construction. The core of the blade is made from VG10 steel, which is then enveloped between 62 layers of stainless steel. This leaves you with a unique combination of hardness and a much higher corrosion-resistance than with carbon steel. The brut de forge finish of the blade emphasizes the handmade nature of this knife.

## Tojiro Atelier Wenge handle

The handle is made from wenge wood. This is a dark type of wood with a very nice pattern. The handle has a traditional, Japanese octagonal shape. As a result, the knife is suitable for left-handed use and right-handed use alike. This octagonal shape is often used for high-quality Japanese kitchen knives.

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.
