A slicer knife from Yaxell in the RAN series is similar to a chef's knife but has a longer and narrower blade, which makes it easier when cutting meat into thin slices. The knife is excellent for both raw and cooked meat as well as for sushi and sashimi. Ran, which means "the excellent" in Japanese, is a fitting name for this knife series. The blades consist of 69 layers of damascus steel with a core of hard VG10 steel and outer layers of softer, rust-resistant steel. This gives the knives extreme sharpness and durability. The blades are hammered and polished to create a beautiful grain. The handle is made of black micarta, produced by joining linen cloth and special plastic under high pressure. This results in a hard, water-resistant and hygienic material, perfect for a kitchen environment. The handle is attached with two strong steel rivets and has a stainless button at the end to ensure perfect balance.
