Santoku Knife, 17.5 cm, Senjen Black

SENJEN Black Santoku – the knife that doesn't stick to food

The SENJEN Black Santoku knife combines Japanese knife design with modern technology. The blade in Asian 7CR17MOV steel features a black titanium coating that prevents sticky foods such as fish and pastries from clinging to the blade. With a blade length of 17.5 cm and a total weight of 392 grams, the knife sits comfortably in the hand and provides full control.

Ideal for precision work with vegetables, fruit, and smaller pieces of fish and meat, where you want clean, precise cuts without food sticking to the knife.

Functional coating delivers cleaner cuts

The black titanium coating on the blade is not merely aesthetically appealing – it serves a decisive practical purpose. When cutting sticky foods such as fish or pastries, the food slides easily off the knife instead of adhering to it. This gives you cleaner cuts and saves time on cleaning between different ingredients. The coating also protects the underlying steel against oxidisation, extending the knife's service life.

Danish design with Japanese inspiration

The SENJEN Black Santoku brings together the best of two worlds: Japanese knife tradition and Danish design philosophy. The santoku shape is ideal for chopping, slicing, and dicing, while the ergonomic black sandalwood handle ensures a comfortable grip. With a hardness of 56–57 HRC, the knife is easy to maintain with a honing steel, allowing you to keep it sharp for everyday use. The knife is part of the SENJEN series, developed with a focus on balance, sharpness, and durability.
