About Ketu:

The beautifully hand-crafted Yaxell Ketu (“The Pure and Clean” in Japanese) is an excellent example of Japanese high-quality professional knives. These knives achieve long-lasting sharpness thanks to their 3 layered stainless-steel blade with SG2 cutting core, which is heat treated to reach a hardness of 63HRC.

The blade is adorned with an artistic hammered motif and rests on a black beech Pakka Wood handle decorated with a Japanese Samurai family crest and convex Yaxell kanji logo. The exceptional and durable sharpness of the Yaxell Ketu Fusion Knife is a great accompaniment for chefs in the Kitchen or at home.

About Yaxell:

Founded in 1932, Yaxell today remains a family-run knife maker in Seki, an iconic city in the history of Japanese knife-making.
Every knife is hand-made – from the forging of the blade to the carving of the logos. Yaxell blades have won numerous awards all over the globe and are used and acclaimed by world class chefs. Exclusive to Divertimenti, we are the Yaxell experts.
During production, Yaxell knives go through a very stringent process in which the blade is heated in a kiln at extreme temperatures, then ice hardened before it’s placed in high heat a second time to ensure the blade is durable, strong, and guaranteed to offer top long-lasting performance. This type of special production process also makes the knife’s blade corrosion-resistant.
