Description

This Japanesesantoku knife is an expert's knife! Internationally renowned, the Yaxell RAN knife series will give you an incredible level of cutting control. You'll feel at ease with every use, and over time!

This 16.5cmsantoku knife has a core of VG10 steel, a very expensive quality steel. Its specific composition (1% carbon, 15% chromium, 1% molybdenum, 0.2% vanadium and 1.5% cobalt) makes it really robust, and therefore ultra-sharp. It achieves an above-average hardness of 61HRC on the Rockwell scale.

This core is surrounded by 68 alternating layers of hard and soft steel (34 layers on each side): this is the damascening process. This goldsmith's technique is used to ensure the blade's perfect blend of strength and elasticity. The dimples on the cutting surface further facilitate use, as food sticks to the blade much less.

Designed in canvas micarta, the handle is highly durable and contributes to the overall harmony of the knife. Quite simply, you'll be able to use it for years without it moving a millimeter. Composed of 40% resin and 60% linen, this composite element is extremely durable and resistant to temperature differences. It can withstand heat of up to 150°C! It is also highly resistant to moisture.

Because of this capacity, micarta cannot shrink, preventing any gaps from forming between the blade and micarta. What's more, this special material has been approved by the American FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for use in professional kitchens.

The 2 rivets fit directly into the solid tang extending from the end of the handle. The tang is thick and made of 18/10 stainless steel, a high-grade steel that is highly resistant to corrosion.

For optimum care, wash gently and wipe dry to preserve its beauty. While the damascening is made of stainless steel, the core of the VG10 blade contains a high carbon content, which is more sensitive to corrosion. If the blade is not damp, it will retain all its splendor.

In this way, Yaxell strives to create Japanese kitchen knives that meet the needs of cooks of all kinds. These exceptional blades will serve you for years to come, and will ensure you enjoy your work every time you prepare a recipe!

The perfect "tool" for a wide range of kitchen tasks... The Yaxell RAN "damascus" knife has a razor-sharp cut and is unquestionably at the top of the excellence table! However, the pleasure of cooking with such a tool must not distract its user from his vigilance. Reserved for professionals and well-informed amateurs... But what a pleasure!
