Yaxell Blue Breeze 8" Chef's Knife

Expertly handcrafted in Seki, Japan, the Yaxell Blue Breeze 8" Chef’s Knife delivers exceptional sharpness, balance, and value. Its lightweight design makes it comfortable for extended prep work, while the razor-sharp edge ensures clean, precise cuts every time. The MOVAX stainless steel core (58 HRC) offers impressive edge retention and corrosion resistance, yet remains more forgiving and chip resistant than harder Japanese steels. The tsuchime (hammered) high-polish finish not only enhances the blade’s beauty but also helps food release smoothly while cutting. Finished with a blue pakkawood handle and stainless rivets, this knife blends craftsmanship, durability, and style in one elegant tool.
