Shizu Hamono GEN Utility 160 mm — Back at Santoku Montenegro!
We are pleased to welcome Shizu Hamono back to the Santoku Montenegro collection, bringing together Japanese craftsmanship, quality materials and functional design.
The GEN Utility 160 mm is a versatile kitchen knife positioned between a smaller Petty knife and a full-size Gyuto or Santoku. Its compact blade offers excellent control, precision and manoeuvrability, making it a practical choice for everyday kitchen tasks.
The Utility shape is particularly useful for cutting smaller portions of meat, slicing and trimming, preparing fruit and vegetables, and handling detailed tasks where a larger chef’s knife may feel less convenient. With a 160 mm blade, it offers a comfortable balance between precision and versatility.
The blade is made from high-quality VG10 stainless steel, valued for its ability to achieve excellent sharpness and precise cutting performance. The GEN series combines a clean, understated design with everyday practicality.
