Suncraft Senzo Gyuto Chef’s Knife

This scaled-down version of a gyuto, a multipurpose Japanese equivalent of the European chef’s knife, is perfect for those who want a knife that can pinch hit between small and large tasks. Suncraft’s classically styled “Senzo” line of knives feature AUS-10 steel blade, a tried-and-true knife steel that holds an edge well, is easy to tune up and is highly resistant to corrosion (though as with any knife, should be dried after use). The Western-style handle is fashioned from pakkawood, a traditional handle material of wood stabilized with resins that makes it impervious to water. The 7-inch gyuto is featherweight, making it feel nimble in the hand, and the blade is stiffer than those of other knives of its size. It’s the right size for trimming meat or butchering chicken, peeling fruit or mincing shallots.
