Y34800 Yaxell Hana Chef's knife

Chef Yaxell Hana - 20 cm blade in MoVaX steel

The chef's knife lives up to its name, and is indispensable in the kitchen for cutting vegetables into sticks or julienne strips and chopping herbs.
It is also used to cut large pieces of meat or fish into chunks.

The blade length generally varies between 13 and 30 cm, but the most popular length is 20 cm.
The core of the blade is made of MOVAX superior stainless steel covered with high-quality stainless steel on both sides. MOVAX is composed of chromium / molybdenum / vanadium which can reach 58 Rockwell.
Blade colour: San Maï 
The cutting angle is extremely sharp and durable. Fearsome sharpness.

Handle in brown Pakkawood (composite material) resistant to temperature variations + humidity. High-quality octagonal shape gives it perfect balance and a flawless cut.
A perfectly crafted knife, worthy of accompanying you in the kitchen.

*Pakkawood is an artificial material that is manufactured for a very specific purpose, to be resilient and resistant to hard use. Pakkawood, while not a natural wood itself, still uses wood in its manufacturing process. Japanese knives are made for tough, repeated use and therefore need to be durable (especially to justify the initial investment as some Japanese knives can carry a substantial price tag!).
The reason why it is so easy to find a pakkawood knife. All is due to the fact that this material is hard wearing and resilient, which is designed to last as long as the material of the blade.
