Santoku Knife, Senjen Powder, 18 cm

Senjen Powder Santoku Knife – precision with minimal weight

The Senjen Powder Santoku Knife with a 180 mm blade length combines exclusive HAP40 powder steel with an elegant black sandalwood handle in an octagonal shape. The three layers of steel ensure an exceptionally sharp edge at 62 HRC hardness, while the knife's slim blade delivers a surprisingly low weight that makes it comfortable to work with – even for extended periods.

Ideal for precision work with vegetables, fruit, smaller cuts of meat and fish, where the Japanese-inspired santoku shape truly excels.

Superior sharpness and durability

HAP40 powder steel is produced using an advanced spray technique in which the steel's components are distributed homogeneously and uniformly. This method creates a perfect structure within the steel, resulting in an unusually sharp and durable edge. With a hardness of 62 HRC, the knife retains its sharpness significantly longer than conventional knives, reducing the need for frequent sharpening and giving you more time to focus on cooking.

Comfort and balance in the kitchen

Despite its high hardness and strength, the Powder Santoku Knife is remarkably lightweight thanks to its slim blade. This minimises strain on the wrists and arms, even during prolonged use. The black sandalwood handle in an octagonal shape sits naturally in the hand and provides a secure grip. The tight grain of the wood makes the handle resistant to moisture and dimensionally stable throughout the knife's lifetime, while the simple brass rivet adds a clean design detail.

Technical specifications

The santoku knife has a blade length of 180 mm and is built with 3 layers of steel.

Please note that the knife is not dishwasher-safe – hand washing and drying are recommended to preserve the knife's qualities.

Frequently asked questions

How do I maintain my Powder Santoku Knife?
Always wash the knife by hand with mild soapy water and dry it immediately afterwards. Avoid the dishwasher, as it damages both the edge and the handle.

How often does the knife need sharpening?
This depends on how intensively the knife is used, but HAP40 steel retains its edge longer than ordinary steel. If you notice a reduction in sharpness, you can have the knife professionally sharpened at H.W. Larsen.
