Description
The Yaxell Ketu Kiritsuke Knife is designed for all the tasks for which you'd use a chef's knife. It works extremely well with vegetables, julienne, dice, and more. Can also be used for cleaning and portioning boneless proteins, particularly fish, and slices cooked proteins with grace and ease. The straight edge won't rock through cuts such as a traditional chef's knife. Yaxell Ketu is constructed of 3-layer stainless steel with a Japanese SG2 powder steel core. The handle is made of black beech pakkawood which provides outstanding stability and balance. The handle also is unique to a traditional Japanese Samurai family crest. The attractive embossed end-cap of the handle is made of stainless steel. Yaxell Ketu is handcrafted exclusively in Seki City, Japan with a lifetime warranty.
