The Yaxell Ketu Japanese Damascus Curved Boning Knife 150mm is a narrow specialist for following bones, trimming connective tissue and portioning proteins with less waste.

Key Features

  • 150 mm blade sized for boning, trimming and joint work
  • Curved edge profile
  • 193-layer Damascus construction
  • SG2 micro-carbide powdered-steel core hardened to 63 HRC
  • Black canvas Micarta handle; wooden sheath supplied on individual knives
  • Made in Seki, Japan

Why Choose This Product

Choose this for work around bones and joints rather than general chopping. A firmer blade gives added control when working through joints and dense connective tissue. The compact length keeps the tip close and controllable around joints and fine contours. Within the Super Gou Ypsilon range, this model stands out for Yaxell's statement range, delivering exceptional edge retention, elaborate Damascus work and presentation-level finishing.

Simply Hospitality Notes

Match flexibility to the job: flexible blades excel at fish and close contouring, while firmer profiles give better control at joints. Never lever sideways with the tip.

Product Guide

Work with short, visible strokes and keep the edge angled toward bone rather than flesh. Follow the natural joint or contour instead of forcing the blade through resistance.

Brand Guide

About Yaxell: Yaxell has produced kitchen knives in Seki, Japan since 1932, combining the region's blade-making heritage with modern stainless and powdered steels. Its ranges progress from practical three-layer knives to highly layered VG10 and SG2 Damascus collections, giving customers meaningful choices in edge retention, finish, handle and investment level.

Product Details

Its controlled profile reaches joints and contours that are awkward for a broad chef's knife, supporting accurate trimming without removing unnecessary meat. The Super Gou Ypsilon specification pairs 193-layer Damascus construction and black canvas Micarta handle; wooden sheath supplied on individual knives to shape balance, durability and maintenance in daily use.
