The Yaxell Ran Carving Fork is a perfect match for either the Slicing or Carving knife. Acting as an extension of the carver’s arm, the carving fork allows you to hold food in place while you make precision slices, keeping your hands clear of both the food and the knife.
About Yaxell:
Founded in 1932, Yaxell today remains a family-run knife maker in Seki, an iconic city in the history of Japanese knife-making.
Every knife is hand-made – from the forging of the blade to the carving of the logos. Yaxell blades have won numerous awards all over the globe and are used and acclaimed by world chefs. Exclusive to Divertimenti, we are the Yaxell experts.
During production, Yaxell knives go through a very stringent process in which the blade is heated in a kiln at extreme temperatures, then ice hardened before it’s placed in high heat a second time to ensure the blade is durable, strong, and guaranteed to offer top long-lasting performance. This type of special production process also makes the knife’s blade corrosion-resistant.
A truly beautiful example of Japanese high-quality cutlery, the award-winning Yaxell Ran (“the excellent” in Japanese) knives were launched in 2006 and soon made a name for themselves on a global scale. Their design is ic and modern at the same time and features a fascinating 69-layered Damascus-steel pattern blade with an extremely sharp cutting angle. These knives are in use by hotels and restaurants, and top chefs all over the world. Yaxell knives are becoming more and more popular among sophisticated home chefs. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan.
A little about the handle:
The handle is made out of black Canvas-Micarta, which is a durable material made of resin and linen and formed under high temperature and pressure. The end of the handle is made out of stainless steel, which gives the knife outstanding stability. Two stainless steel rivets fasten the handle tightly. The handle is very comfortable to hold.
