Super Gou by Yaxell

The Yaxell Super Gou collection features 161-layer blades with an SG2 Micro-Carbide powder stainless steel cutting core, reaching a hardness of 63 HRC on the Rockwell scale. All Yaxell knives undergo a heating process in a high-temperature kiln, followed by ice-hardening and tempering, which creates a corrosion-resistant blade with longer edge retention. The series name is engraved on both the blade and on the grip end, where the name "Gou" (meaning "splendid" in Japanese) is subtly inscribed. The handle is made of red and black canvas micarta attached with three stainless steel rivets, and it is finished with an engraved 18/10 stainless steel end-cap that provides stability and balance.
