Looking for a santoku knife that’s a cut above the rest?

The **Yaxell Ketu santoku 16.5 cm** is a practical and stylish Japanese kitchen knife. A santoku is the Japanese version of the chef's knife. The relatively small blade is perfect when finely cutting vegetables, meat, fish, onion, garlic and, of course, different types of herbs.

## Yaxell Ketu blade

The blade of the Yaxell Ketu knife consists of three layers. Two layers of stainless steel on the outside, enveloping a core of SG2 powdered steel. This is a very hard steel with a hardness of as much as 63 HRC! As such, you can sharpen the knife to razor-sharpness. The blade has a hammered finish. In Japanese, this finish is called Tsuchime. It is a traditional and artisanal Japanese finish originally created by the blacksmith's hammer. 

## Yaxell Ketu handle

The handle is made from pakkawood. It uses beech wood as its base and features a stunning black and gold-brown colour. Pakka wood is a laminate made of thin layers of wood impregnated with a strong synthetic resin. As such, it is very strong. So perfect for the handle of a knife. Thanks to the round shape of the handle, the knife feels great in hand. A decorative mosaic pin and an engraving at the end of the handle make it even more elegant. 

## Yaxell kitchen knives

Yaxell has been producing professional Japanese kitchen knives for daily use ever since 1932. They do so in the knife capital of Japan: Seki. Here they combine modern techniques, designs and materials with the historical knowledge and expertise of traditional swords and knife makers.

To achieve this Yaxell introduced a couple collections that are suited for everyone. The materials used provide you with a reliable and top-quality knife. Knives you will love to use every single day.
