Yaxell Zen Paring Knife 10cm

Yaxell knives are meticulously crafted in Seki, the historic Japanese hub for sword making spanning over 700 years, blending the artistry of traditional swordsmiths with cutting-edge technology. The Zen collection's knife blades boast a captivating hammer finish achieved through 37 layers of forged stainless steel. This not only enhances visual appeal but also forms tiny air pockets, preventing food from clinging to the blade. The Yaxell Zen Paring Knife, with its 10cm blade, is the perfect choice for precise cutting in smaller, intricate tasks like peeling, coring, mincing, and dicing small vegetables or fruits.
