The harder steel allows the blade to hold its sharpness for longer and the thinner behind-edge ensures a sleek cutting performance. Overall, an excellent value for money choice for those who are looking for a step up from Tojiro’s popular DP series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpec:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin (Made in): Tsubame, Niigata Prefecture, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Tojiro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel No.: F-517\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnife Type: Santoku\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: San Mai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrind: Double-edged Blade (50\/50 Grind)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHagane (Core Steel): R2\/SG2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJigane (Cladding): 13 Chrome Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 63 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-sharpened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Length: 170mm (6.7\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Height (at heel): 46mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpine Thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbove heel: 2.0mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiddle: 1.9mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Western shaped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Reinforced Laminated Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolster: 18-8 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 122mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall Length: 300mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 194g (6.84oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMark: In Japanese Kanji \"\u003cem\u003eTojiro Powdered High Speed\u003c\/em\u003e\" (藤次郎粉末ハイス) ; “Tojiro Made in Japan”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Tojiro 藤次郎\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTojiro is the leading knife manufacturer in Tsubame-Sanjo, an area with a few centuries of knife making tradition.
