Product Description

RAN Damascus Yaxell knives are made in Japan using traditional methods and cutting edge technology. The center material of the blade is VG10 stainless steel, an optimum combination of metals that creates the best and most durable blade. The VG10 center is then covered by soft and hard stainless steel, folded together in to total 33 layers. The marbled "Damascus" finish on the blade prevents food from sticking, enabling clean cuts. The smooth, black micarta handle sits comfortably in your hand. The Japanese style chef's knife is designed for slicing, dicing and chopping. It is similar to a traditional chef's knife in that is used for the same tasks. "San" is the Japanese word for three and "toku" is the Japanese word for good things, which means that the knife possesses three good virtues in that it can slice, dice and chop. The santoku Precision-forged stainless-steel blade is typically thinner which allows for a smoother and more precise cut. Gift boxed. Made in Japan

Customer Reviews

Beautiful knife razor sharp5
I have used a Santoku knife for many years and this is one of the finest I have seen. Great balance well made and very sharp. The handle was comfortable, but it is not a traditional material; I expect it will be more durable. I have given this type of knife as a gift on several occasions and I have to make the point it is not a boning knife and the blade will chip easily, but you will not believe how well it cuts.

A piece of art5
I received the knife and it was really beautiful (Damascus), it feel comfortable and balance. The blade is super sharp and it make cutting a joy. But you need to be very careful when using and washing with your fingers. Highly recommand!
