Full details
The Vogue Tsuki Series Vegetable Chopper is designed for professional chefs and serious home cooks who require a reliable, razor-sharp tool for precision vegetable preparation. Its primary benefit is the high-performance VG-10 stainless steel core, which provides exceptional edge retention and durability; however, users must commit to hand-washing the knife to prevent damage to the blade and ensure its longevity.

FAQs
Is this knife dishwasher safe?

What is the Rockwell hardness of this blade?
The core is hardened up to 60° Rockwell, which provides excellent edge retention.
Can I use this for cutting frozen food or bones?
No. The high hardness of the VG-10 steel makes the blade brittle and susceptible to chipping if used on frozen items or bone.
What is the weight of the chopper?
The knife weighs 230g, providing a balanced feel for professional vegetable preparation.
Who endorses this product?
The Vogue Tsuki Series is endorsed by the Craft Guild of Chefs.

The blade measures 17.2cm.
Troubleshooting
Blade feels dull during use
Use a sharpening stone or honing rod to realign the edge; ensure you maintain the appropriate angle for a Japanese-style blade.
Small spots appearing on the blade
These are likely water stains or mild surface oxidation. Clean with a non-abrasive cloth and ensure the blade is dried completely after every use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a high-carbon, high-hardness knife, it requires specific care to prevent premature wear. Never place this knife in a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the steel and the handle material. Instead, hand wash it immediately after use using warm water and mild dish soap, then dry it thoroughly with a soft towel to prevent water spots or rust. It is recommended to store the blade in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to keep the edge from dulling against other utensils. Regularly hone the edge with a ceramic rod to keep the blade performing at its peak.
