Suncraft Senzo Clad AUS10 165mm Boning knife

The Clad range blends both the European and Japanese style cues, with a distinctive full tang handle and the AUS10 blade. 

The boning knife is a perfect compliment to your arsenal. It is perfect for intricate work where you may need to trim or work around bone structures. A perfect example is trimming the skirt off a brisket ready for smoking. 

What can it be utilised for:

Are you tired of using dull knives that can't even debone a chicken? Say hello to your new best friend - the boning knife! This handy dandy tool is perfect for separating meat from bones like a boss. Plus, it's great for trimming fat and sinew from cuts of meat, so you can feel like a lean, mean, cooking machine. And don't worry, it's not just for deboning chicken (although it's definitely great for that). You can use it on beef, pork, and even fish. So go ahead and give your old, dull knives the boot and upgrade to a boning knife. Your taste buds (and your Instagram followers) will thank you.

Benefits:

As the Clad range utilises a full tang construction they are often more familiar to the everyday cook. For this reason, the Clad boning knife is a perfect addition to your arsenal. The value driven price point allows you to experience the magic of Japanese knives without breaking the bank. 

Why a Japanese knife:

Japanese craftsmen have been making steel based blades for centuries and this artesian skill has built them an undeniable reputation for making some of the best knives available. In addition, the lighter construction compared to a traditional Western-style knife allows for less fatigue when slicing up a metric tonne of onions!

History and info

AUS10 WITH STAINLESS CLAD

3 layers Damascus stainless steel
So-called Damascus steel is multi-layered of microthin stainless steel. 25% of components at the center of layers are called a core steel. Damascus steel used for this CLAD series has AUS-10 stainless steel as a core steel. The other 75% of components are two different hardness steel layers. The both sides of core steel are compressed with alternately soft steel and hard steel. This makes the blade look like wave patterns by special procedures.

AUS-10 stainless steel for core
Stainless steel is a type of steel that contains chromium, which helps protect it from oxidation. This makes it resistant to corrosion from acidic foods and water. Stainless steel is usually considered to be any steel with a chromium content of 12% or higher. AUS10 is a type of stainless steel that is relatively easy to sharpen and low maintenance, but it may not retain its edge as well as harder steel knives like VG10. It is also less prone to chipping than harder steel knives. However, this is a trade-off for the benefits of its easier sharpening and lower maintenance.

HRC (ROCKWELL SCALE)

The HRC is a hardness scale based on the hardness of a material. Typically HRC of 60+ is seen to be a quality hard steel that retains its edge over a prolonged time.
