Yaxell ZEN Slicing Knife in Damascus Steel
The Yaxell ZEN slicing knife stands out with its Damascus steel blade, composed of 37 layers, offering remarkable robustness and aesthetics. The 180 mm blade is designed for precise and efficient cuts, thanks to its blade profile specially adapted to slicing.
The blade core is VG10 steel, surrounded by two layers of 18 high-carbon stainless steels, guaranteeing a hardness of 61 HRC. This composition ensures excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance.
The Micarta handle, in black color, is both robust and durable. It is fixed by two stainless rivets, ensuring a comfortable and secure grip. The handle design complements the elegance of the blade, with a smooth edge that facilitates clean cuts.
The knife features a raw hammering finish, with the Yaxell and Zen logos stamped, adding a touch of authenticity and Japanese tradition. The term "Zen" in Japanese evokes the art of preparing healthy meals, reflecting the philosophy of this knife.
