The Yaxell Hana Santoku Knife 12.5 cm is a compact Japanese knife model similar to a chef's knife but with a shorter blade and rounded tip. The name "santoku" means "three tasks," referring to the knife's excellent ability to slice, dice, and chop. The knife is made of three layers of steel with a hard core of Movax steel and rust-resistant outer layers. With a hardness of 58 HRC, the knife is both durable and efficient. The dark brown pakkawood handle provides durability and hygiene, while the traditional Japanese design highlights the craftsmanship.
