Yaxell knives, meticulously crafted in the heart of Seki, the Japanese capital for sword-making with a legacy of over 700 years, seamlessly blend the techniques of traditional swordsmiths with advanced technology. Each knife blade in the Zen collection boasts a striking hammer finish achieved through the layering of 37 sheets of forged stainless steel. This process not only enhances the visual appeal but also creates small pockets of air, preventing food from sticking to the blade. The Yaxell Zen Utility Knife 12cm, slightly longer than a paring knife but smaller than a chef's knife, is perfect for precision cutting of smaller foods, with its fine tip making it great for peeling, chopping, and fine slicing.
