Its broad, rectangular blade is used for slicing, chopping, mincing, and crushing, and the wide flat of the blade doubles as a bench scraper for transferring ingredients. At 225mm and 560g, this is a substantial knife with real presence in the hand. Tojiro's VG10 core delivers the hardness and edge retention that the steel is known for, while the 13-chrome stainless steel cladding provides corrosion resistance and makes the knife easy to maintain. The natural wood handle is comfortable and traditional. This is the thin-blade variant - designed for slicing and general prep rather than heavy chopping or bone work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only, never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing - natural wood handles are sensitive to prolonged moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly to maintain the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot suitable for chopping through bone - this is a thin-blade variant designed for slicing and prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block to protect the blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Oppenheimer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39471732359246,"sku":"TF-922","price":310.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/ScreenShot2021-08-24at4.44.42pm_b64a5b84-1efb-4360-8f1a-b0feaf84ed38.png?v=1629788094","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/tojiro-vg10-chinese-knife-225mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
