For centuries, samurai were masters of the sword—combining precision, strength, and discipline into a single gesture. The Yaxell Ketu Series knives embody this spirit: blades as sharp as katanas, elegant handles reminiscent of sword hilts, and meticulous attention to detail that speaks of courage and perfection. That’s why we’ve named this set the “Samurai Trio”: three essential kitchen weapons for your culinary mastery.
Designed for the most demanding kitchen professionals, this case combines elegance, durability, and advanced functionality. Made of impact- and wear-resistant material, it features a non-slip technical fabric interior that keeps each tool securely in place. The reinforced zip closure and double stitching ensure reliability even under intense use. The padded ergonomic handle and adjustable shoulder strap provide maximum comfort during transport, while its compact size (50×14×5 cm closed; 50×49×5 cm open) allows for easy storage in a professional kitchen or chef's trolley.
Inside are three knives from Yaxell’s renowned Ketu Series, each featuring a three-layer blade with a sintered SG2 steel core (63 HRC hardness), hammered finish, and handle in premium Pakka beech wood. Details below:
