This **Tojiro Zen Black chef’s knife 21 cm** is a stunning knife. More importantly: this knife is amazing to use. With this knife cutting vegetables, fruit, meat and fish will be a piece of cake. But also finely chopping herbs, crushing pepper corns and peeling cloves of garlic is easy with this all-rounder.
## Tojiro Zen Black blade
For knives there is always a compromise between hardness (sharp, but brittle and less stainless) and flexible (less sharp and less brittle, more stainless). Tojiro opted for a multi-layer construction. The core is made from VG10 steel surrounded by 13-chrome steel. This leaves you with a unique combination of hardness and a much higher corrosion-resistance than with carbon steel. The black oxidized finish of the blade makes the blade look amazing.
## Tojiro Zen Black handle
The handle is made from light-weight dark-coloured chestnut wood. It is enhanced with a traditional Japanese D-shape. This is a right-handed knife, but left-handed users won’t be bothered by this asymmetry.
