Yaxell Ran – 2-Piece Knife Gift Set (Chef Knife + Utility Knife)

The Yaxell Ran – 2-Piece Knife Gift Set (Chef Knife + Utility Knife) is a premium Japanese knife duo built for confident, everyday cooking. Pairing a Chef’s Knife 20 cm (8") with a Utility Knife 12 cm (4.7"), this set covers the essentials—efficient chopping and slicing with the chef’s knife, plus precise trimming, portioning, and smaller prep with the utility knife.

Both knives feature a VG10 “super steel” core composed of cobalt, molybdenum, vanadium, and carbon. The VG10 stainless steel is clad with 34 layers of soft and hard high-carbon stainless steel on each side, creating a 69-layer, rust-resistant Damascus-look blade with an extremely sharp cutting edge and refined appearance.

Under special heat treatment, the VG10 core reaches an outstanding hardness rating of HRC 61 on the Rockwell scale, supporting long-lasting cutting performance and reliable edge retention for daily kitchen work. The result is clean, controlled cutting you can depend on across a wide range of ingredients and techniques.

For secure handling, the set is finished with FDA-approved black Canvas-Micarta handles—an odorless, enormously durable resin-and-linen material made to last decades. A stainless steel end cap adds stability, while two stainless steel rivets fasten the handle tightly for confident grip and control.

Care of the knife:

Hand-wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately to help protect the edge and preserve the blade finish.

Avoid the dishwasher and harsh or abrasive cleaners, and store the knives safely to help protect the cutting edge.
