Experience the craftsmanship of traditional Japanese swordsmiths combined with advanced technology with Yaxell knives. Handcrafted in Seki, the heart of Japanese sword-making for over 700 years, each knife in the Zen collection showcases a stunning hammer finish with 37 layers of forged stainless steel. This not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also creates small pockets of air, preventing food from sticking to the blade. The Yaxell Zen Oriental Chef's Knife 18cm, a classic in the collection, offers a broad, rectangular shape similar to a cleaver but with a thinner, lighter blade suitable for versatile tasks like slicing, dicing, and peeling. Upgrade your culinary experience and make a statement in your kitchen with this extraordinary knife.
