Suncraft Senzo Twisted Octagon 9.4-inch (240mm) Chef's Knife

At 9.4 inches, this Twisted Octagon chef’s knife is the longest blade in the series, made for large cutting boards and volume prep. Halving a cabbage or slicing a roast takes fewer strokes with this much edge, and the VG10 core keeps the blade sharp through a long session.

Suncraft rates it at about 190g, light for a knife this size, so it stays nimble for mincing. The Damascus cladding carries a random wave pattern unique to each blade, and the extra-long octagonal white pakkawood handle, the signature of the line, twists toward the bolster to settle the fingers. Every knife in the series is made thin enough to slice even sashimi with ease. It suits professional cooks and confident home cooks who prefer a long gyuto, and it makes a striking centerpiece for a collection.


A Shorter Option

The 7.9-inch Chef’s Knife is easier to control on a small board.

    Care

    Hand wash with warm water and a mild detergent, then dry the knife right away. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Use a wood or soft plastic cutting board, and keep the thin, hard edge away from bones, frozen food and twisting cuts. Maintain the edge on whetstones.
