The Yaxell Ketu Japanese Damascus Steak Knife 113mm is a table knife designed to portion cooked meat cleanly at the plate.

Key Features

  • 113 mm blade sized for steak, chops and other plated proteins
  • Fine straight edge
  • 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 a noticeably cleaner table experience than a standard dinner knife. The plain edge gives the cleanest cut and a refined feel, provided it is maintained properly. 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

For hospitality use, balance cutting feel against maintenance: a plain edge gives the cleanest slice, while a serrated edge holds serviceability longer between sharpening cycles.

Product Guide

Use a smooth drawing action rather than heavy downward pressure. For plain-edge models, routine honing maintains a clean table cut; serrated models need less frequent specialist attention.

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

A purpose-made steak profile keeps table service controlled and avoids the tearing that can occur with a blunt general table knife. 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.
