All The Key Details
Crafted in Seki, Japan: High-Performance SG2 Powder Stainless Steel
Seki, Japan, a renowned center for handcrafted knives, is the home of this unique product. Using the exclusive high-performance SG2 powder stainless steel, this knife is a masterpiece of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
Advanced Heat Treatment and Hardening
Our knife undergoes meticulous heat treatment and ice hardening to achieve an impressive 63 Rockwell hardness rating (HRC). This process outperforms other similar stainless steels like VG10 and AUS10, ensuring superior edge retention and a longer-lasting sharpness.
Durable and Corrosion-Resistant
The stainless clad 3-layer construction not only protects the SG2 cutting core but also enhances its corrosion resistance. This guarantees durability, making the knife suitable for daily use.
Stunning Tsuchime and Precision Sharpening
The breathtaking tsuchime ("hammered") blade finish enhances food release and appearance. The hand-sharpened edge, with a subtle double bevel and a polished finish at 12 degrees, delivers razor-sharp performance right from the box.
Ergonomic Handle Design
Crafted from resin-infused wood fibers, the fully contoured handle ensures a comfortable and durable grip. The stainless steel bolster adds balance, making the knife a joy to handle. Traditional Japanese design elements, such as the mosaic pin and Yaxell kanji logo, are beautifully incorporated, adding a touch of authenticity.
