SENZO CLAD a unique product line fromSUNCRAFT. The blades of the knives in this series are made of clad 3-layer AUS-10 steel. It is a hard material (HRC 58+/-1), with the same carbon content as steel440C, but with less chrome. As a result, knives made ofAUS-10steel are more resistant to corrosion and more durable. By adding vanadium to the alloy, the sensitivity of theSENZO CLAD knives to abrasion was reduced.

The blades in theSENZO CLAD line, similarly to theSENZO UNIVERSAL, have a full tang ), embedded in the knife handle with rivets. Thanks to this, the tool's grip is secure and it remains perfectly balanced, cutting, chopping and grinding products with a force that perfectly matches the pressure of the cook's hand.

The handles of the products in this series are made ofPakkawood* ebony.
