Suncraft SENZO TWISTED OCTAGON Kitchen Knife 200 mm TO-05

The French knife, or better known as a chef's knife, is the most commonly used knife by cooks. For both professionals and amateurs. It features a relatively long, wide blade with a characteristic rounded shape. This allows the knife to be used for almost all cutting methods. From mincing and chopping to slicing and dicing. Due to these features, it is a knife that should be in every kitchen.

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. SENZO  TWISTED OCTAGON series Suncraft  knives  are made from  33 layers  of stainless steel, known as Damascus steel*, reinforced with  VG-10 steel **. This composition is extremely durable, and the knife itself is resistant to damage and dulling. A close-up reveals a delicate, wavy pattern reminiscent of samurai swords. 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: two sizes of chef's knife, a carving knife, a utility knife, Santoku and Sashimi knives.

* Damascus steel  – modern so-called Damascus steel consists of super-thin stainless steel sheets layered on top of each other, where the central 25% of the sheets form the core, and the remaining 75% consist of sheets of different hardness – alternating layers of soft and hard steel. This creates a "wavy" effect 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  on 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 is highly resistant to heat and moisture and was specifically developed for knife handles.
