Yaxell Japanese SG2 Chef's Knife (8.5 x 2.25) - Made in Japan

The Yaxell Ketu SG2 knives embody the pinnacle of modern knife craftsmanship in a country renowned for its rich blade history. Utilizing advanced powder metallurgy techniques, these knives feature an SG2 powder stainless steel core that facilitates Yaxell's creation of a knife sharper and more durable than ever before.

Carefully controlled heat treatment and ice hardening processes yield an exquisite microstructure within the steel, enabling unparalleled sharpenability and toughness. The blend of precision engineering and artisanal skill results in a knife that is not only functional but also visually appealing.

Yaxell Ketu knives boast a stainless steel bolster for balance, along with a well-contoured pakkawood handle, offering comfort, durability, and ergonomic design. These knives weigh less than their German forged counterparts, while still providing a slightly heavier feel in the hand, enhancing overall performance.

The combination of Yaxell's expertise, modern technology, and traditional Japanese craftsmanship ensures that these knives not only meet but exceed expectations for high-performance kitchen cutlery.
