The Yaxell Super GOU Japanese Damascus Paring Knife 80mm is a compact precision knife for peeling, trimming, shaping and close in-hand preparation.

Key Features

  • 80 mm blade sized for peeling, coring and trimming fruit and vegetables
  • 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 close control. Its compact blade is safer and more accurate than a chef's knife for small ingredients, curved cuts and jobs performed in the hand. The shorter blade keeps detail work close to the hand for maximum control. 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

A paring knife should feel secure in a fingertip grip and remain easy to control off the board. Keep the edge sharp—small blunt knives encourage excessive hand pressure close to the blade.

Product Guide

Use the board for firm produce and reserve in-hand cuts for controlled peeling and trimming. Keep fingertips behind the cutting path and let the tip perform the detailed work.

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

The short blade keeps the cutting edge close to the hand, making it easier to control small cuts and detailed work that feel clumsy with a chef's 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.
