Experience the Everyday Precision of a 150mm Utility Knife
The Tojiro DP3 Utility Knife 150mm sits in the sweet spot between a paring knife and a chef's knife - long enough to slice, nimble enough for detail work. It is the knife that earns its place on the bench every single day, handling the tasks that are too big for a paring knife and too small for a gyuto.
A utility knife is the workhorse of the in-between - the blade you reach for when precision matters but a full chef's knife is overkill. At 150mm, the Tojiro DP3 Utility Knife has enough length to slice tomatoes, trim proteins, and break down smaller vegetables cleanly, while remaining light and manoeuvrable enough for close detail work. Tojiro's DP3 construction places a VG10 high-cobalt core at the cutting edge - a steel chosen for its hardness and edge retention - clad in high-chrome stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance. At 60 HRC, the blade holds a keen edge through heavy daily use. Handcrafted in Niigata, Japan's knife-making capital, and hand-polished to an impeccable finish.
