Suncraft SENZO TWISTED OCTAGON Petty knife 150mm TO-02
The Petty knife is a versatile utility knife, a smaller version of a chef's knife. It is used for various tasks, making it very popular among culinary art enthusiasts.
The distinctive handle shape of the SENZO TWISTED OCTAGON series products was inspired by the octagonal figure, which is important in Japanese culture. For user comfort and better grip, the octagonal knife handle is additionally slightly twisted. The blades of the SENZO TWISTED OCTAGON series Suncraft knives are made from 33 layers of stainless steel, known as Damask steel*, reinforced with VG-10 steel**. This composition is extremely durable, and the knife itself is resistant to wear and fading. A subtle, wavy pattern reminiscent of samurai swords is depicted in close-up. The Japanese design is complemented by a handle made of white Pakkawood*** and a red ring at the base of the blade. The series includes: a chef's knife in two sizes, a slicing knife, a utility knife, Santoku, and Sashimi knives.
* Damask steel – modern so-called Damask steel consists of super-thin stainless steel sheets layered on top of each other, where the middle 25% of the sheets form the core, and the remaining 75% consist of layers of different hardness – alternating layers of soft and hard steel. As a result, a "wavy" effect is created on the knife's surface.
**VG-10 steel, this type of steel was considered the best for manufacturing kitchen knives. Chefs appreciate both the beautiful design of VG-10 knives and their exceptional durability. VG-10 is a high-hardness material, with a value of HRC 60 according to the HRC scale. For this reason, knives made from it are extremely sharp and highly resistant to abrasion.
***Pakkawood – this is laminated birch or maple wood, impregnated with resin. It boasts very high resistance to heat and moisture and was specifically developed for knife handles.
