Tojiro DP Gyuto 270 mm (F-810)

TOJIRO CLASSIC Gyuto 270 mm — F-810

A long knife to choose because you truly need it

From 180 to 240 mm you gain cutting room little by little, but at 270 mm things start to change. The F-810 begins to ask that your work space, your type of work and you suit it too. A 270 mm blade, about 405 mm overall and about 295 g — you clearly feel its size and weight the moment you pick it up.

From 240 to 270 mm

The F-809 (240 mm) weighs about 240 g. The F-810 is only 30 mm longer but about 55 g heavier. So what changes isn't just length but mass and how it feels in use. On large ingredients it feels steady and cuts in one continuous stroke; for small tasks or on a small board, that length and weight can be more than you need.

A knife that loves large ingredients

Large cuts of meat, fish, cabbage, watermelon or high-volume prep — the long blade lets you draw through and finish the cut in one stroke. In a kitchen that cuts all day, the extra edge becomes real working space.

A bigger knife doesn't mean more force — let sharpness, weight and blade movement work together

Your board must grow with the knife

The F-810 is over 40 cm long. On a short board or in a cramped space you can't make full use of 270 mm, and an F-808 or F-809 may work better. Knife, board, space and user are one system.

Gyuto 270 mm or Sujihiki F-806?

TOJIRO CLASSIC also has the Sujihiki F-806 at the same 270 mm, weighing about 240 g. If most of your work is slicing meat or fish, the F-806 fits better. But the F-810 is still a Gyuto — it also has to chop vegetables, slice finely and work on the board.

Choose by your work, not your hand size

The key question is “How do you work?” The F-810 suits you if you:

• Use a large board
• Regularly prep large volumes or large ingredients
• Like a long edge and a knife with weight in the hand

If you mostly make small dishes on a medium board, an F-808 or F-809 may be more convenient even with big hands. The knife keeps every TOJIRO CLASSIC basic: VG10 clad blade, full-tang reinforced laminated handle with three rivets, and a metal bolster.

Who is the F-810 for?

• Want agility — F-807 (180 mm)
• Want an all-round main knife — F-808 (210 mm)
• Like a long blade that's still easy to manage — F-809 (240 mm)

But with the F-810, the question isn't “Is a bigger knife better?” but “Does my work need a knife this size?”
The F-810 isn't trying to be a Gyuto for everyone — it's a Gyuto for people who already know what they'll do with those extra 30 mm.
