A small Santoku knife is a versatile kitchen tool designed for precision cutting, chopping, and slicing. Typically ranging from 5 to 6 inches in blade length, it retains the classic Santoku shape—featuring a slightly curved edge and a sheepsfoot tip—but offers greater maneuverability and control due to its compact size. This makes it ideal for intricate tasks like mincing herbs, slicing small vegetables, or working in tight kitchen spaces.

The Suncraft Senzo Black range is a premium collection of Japanese kitchen knives designed for both professional chefs and home cooks who value precision and aesthetics. Featuring razor-sharp blades crafted from high-carbon stainless steel, these knives offer exceptional edge retention and durability. The striking black finish on the blade, achieved through an advanced oxidation process, not only enhances corrosion resistance but also adds a sleek, modern look.

Each knife in the Senzo Black series is equipped with an ergonomic, full-tang handle made from durable composite materials, ensuring a comfortable and secure grip. With a perfect balance of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and contemporary innovation, the Suncraft Senzo Black range delivers superior cutting performance and an elegant design that stands out in any kitchen.
