    I have the Tojiro version and paid over $100; great knife. $70 is a bargain

    Edit: mine is the Tojiro DP3 Series Chef Knife 24cm

  • Tsapena on 09/03/2024 - 17:04

    I bought this last time ot was on sale and its an excellent knife.
    Bargain at this price if your looking for quality with a razors edge….

  • cmyk on 09/03/2024 - 17:10

    Thanks, bought one to try

    is this dishwasher safe?

    • spirrowhack on 09/03/2024 - 17:15

      No, this will cut through the dishwasher.

    • DeToxin on 09/03/2024 - 17:19

      Definitely don't put it in the dishwasher if you want it to last

    • BargainBogan99 on 09/03/2024 - 17:22

      No.
      But even if it was you should put your "sharp knives" in the dishwasher. They heat and cleaning agents can dull the blade.

      Of course that depends a lot on how sharp you keep them usually.

    • AustriaBargain on 09/03/2024 - 17:43

      Just look at this blade funny and it will instantly dull.

  • frogduck on 09/03/2024 - 17:19

    Stupid question I probably know the answer to - how does this compare to the Kiwi knives (Thai)? Been using them for a long time and thinking it's time for an upgrade

    • chuckroast on 09/03/2024 - 17:24

      They're in a completely different league.

      This knife at this price would be a great first chefs knife. It will last you a lifetime.

      • maverickjohn on 09/03/2024 - 17:51

        In all honesty.. the kiwi knife is the best value utility knife on earth and would probably always buy a kiwi knife over a 'better quality " utility knife.
        I use my my kiwi more than my global utility. My vegetable and chefs knife however is more used on the globals
        But the above knife is fantastic and would beat the kiwi easily for cutting meat and the likes

        • frogduck on 09/03/2024 - 19:21

          Awesome, and yes I feel bad getting rid of the trusty kiwi knives! I may keep one around :)

      • frogduck on 09/03/2024 - 19:20

        Yeah figured they're in a different league from the price point. Sounds like a good buy!

  • DeToxin on 09/03/2024 - 17:23

    I bought this knife a few months ago for $78 and thought it was a bargain at that price. At this price it's a no-brainer.
    Having used a full carbon knife previously (and still do 1/2 the time), this fujitora is a lot harder to sharpen than a carbon knife for anyone wondering.
    The factory edge is pretty good, but it seems to feel a little less sharp than my carbon knife even after considerable whetstone work

      • Jeffsy on 09/03/2024 - 17:31

        Same.

  • winsonian on 09/03/2024 - 17:32

    Any recommendations for knife sharpeners? (Never tried sharpening stones before)

        This. ^^^^^

      Shapton 1000. I started getting into knife sharpening around a year ago and I imagine seeing this thing lasting at least another 5 years, if not a lot longer.

      With that said, save yourself and stay away. It's one of those intellectual blackholes you don't come back from.

    • Banj0 on 09/03/2024 - 21:00

      At the risk of going completely overboard…

      https://tormek.com/en/products/sharpening-machines/tormek-t-…

      Best sharpener I've ever used on knives.

      Otherwise…learning to use flat stones and water is a nice skill. Or…wet sandpaper on a perfectly flat surface (glass plate, block of perfectly flat stone, whatever). Diamond stones are good too, and they stay flat (ceramic and natural stones do not, and you need to dress them).

      Or…you'll find a ceramic rod will do a fairly decent job of keeping your edge keen - but eventually you'll need to do the edge properly.

  • UncleRico on 09/03/2024 - 17:38

    Thanks OP - great price.

    But dammit Japanese steel… why can’t I quit you?

    • garage sale on 10/03/2024 - 09:41

      when you have outgrown the VG10 try ginsan steel / silver 3 also stainless and the next step up from VG10 and they seem to be able to temper it harder than VG10 reaching 61-62. only own one ginsan so far, 24cm gyuto, will see how it goes in the long term.

      I have a few Kasumis but not a nakiri. That's a great price

    • lordra on 09/03/2024 - 22:51

      Missed this one too. 😭

  • spaceflight on 09/03/2024 - 18:06

    The Japanese domestic version of the Tojiro DP3 VG-10 210mm gyuto.

    But it's got a Western style handle rather than a Japanese style handle

    I cut slices so thin, I couldn't even SEE them!

  • Sleepycat3 on 10/03/2024 - 10:22

    Was considering it, but have had issues with VG-10 retaining its sharpness after some moderate use. Currently use Aogami carbon steel knives, so I guess I am spoilt.

  • UncleRico on 04/04/2024 - 00:44

    Just received. Wow.

    Thanks again, OP…
