Yaxell Zen Premium 5 Piece Knife Set

Yaxell knives are meticulously crafted in Seki, the historic Japanese hub for sword making with a legacy spanning over 700 years. They seamlessly blend the artistry of traditional swordsmiths with cutting-edge technology. The knife blades in the Zen collection showcase an exquisite hammer finish achieved through 37 layers of forged stainless steel. This not only enhances the visual allure but also creates tiny air pockets, preventing food from clinging to the blade. The comprehensive set comprises a 23cm bread knife, 20cm chef's knife, 16. 5cm santoku knife, 12cm utility knife, and a 10cm paring knife.

Features:

• Blade has a VG10 super stainless steel core, which is covered by 18 layers of soft and hard high-carbon stainless steel on each side, producing the unique and rust resistant 37-layer Damascus blade
• The hammer marks on the upper part of the blade shows off the mastery of Japanese craftsmanship and features a stamped logo
• Yaxell blades are heated in a very hot kiln then tempered in high temperature, a heat treatment technique which makes the blades strong and durable with a hardness rating of 61 degrees on the Rockwell scale
• The wood-like black handles are made of FDA-approved Canvas-Micarta, an odourless and highly durable material of linen and resin, that is water-resistant, hygienic, and lasts decades
• Handles are perfectly polished and fastened with two stainless steel rivets, which give the knives outstanding stability
