Yaxell Super GOU 161 Santoku Knife - 16.5cm

Made in Japan, the Yaxell Super Gou santoku knife is the perfect knife for both high-end restaurant and skilled domestic chefs with an eye for beauty. 

Thanks to this knife's incredible balance, light weight and razor-sharp edge, when you buy this, you'll know you've reached the top.

The blade core is made from ultra-hard Micro Carbide Powder stainless steel SG2, which is enveloped by 80 layers on both sides with soft and hard stainless steel.
This powdered steel contains a lot of carbon and has an unprecedented hardness of approximately 63 Rockwell.
Powdered steel is used because it ensures a high degree of purity and an exceptionally sharp cutting edge.

The surface impresses with a fascinating Damascus design pattern ‒ a symbol of the highest quality knife and its signature, Super GOU 161 layers.

The beautiful handle is made from FDA-approved red-black Canvas-Micarta, which is an odourless and enormously durable material made of resin and linen.
The Canvas material is dyed red and brilliantly finished.
This material lasts decades.
The handle is attached tightly using three stainless steel rivets and is supported by the high-quality 18-10 stainless steel inside, which gives the knife outstanding stability and balance.

The GOU trade mark is engraved on the grip end in a noble style.
