Extremely sharp, extremely hard, and extremely durable, this 6-Inch Slicer knife from Yaxell is the ultimate in superior quality kitchen knives. Yaxell blades are heated in a kiln to a very high temperature and then ice-hardened. Then they are again tempered using the high temperature to make the blade strong, durable and corrosion-resistant with long-lasting performance. The core material is VG10 “super steel,” composed of cobalt, molybdenum, vanadium, and carbon. This VG10 stainless steel is clad with 34 layers of soft and hard high-carbon stainless steel on each side, producing 69 layers for the Damascus look. The handle is constructed of FDA-approved black canvas-micarta, an odorless, enormously durable material made of resin and linen that will last decades.
