Yaxell Ran Bread Knife, 230 mm, art. 36008

The Yaxell Ran bread knife, 230 mm (art. 36008), is an elongated Japanese knife designed to slice bread and bakery products without crushing the crumb or damaging the crust. In school, kindergarten and hospital kitchens, it is used at serving and distribution stations where significant quantities of bread are cut into portions daily.

The blade belongs to the Yaxell Ran line, where a VG10 steel core is wrapped in 69 layers of Damascus steel. Blade length is 230 mm and overall length is 360 mm — the elongated blade allows a single, clean stroke through bread without pressing down on the crumb. The sharpening angle is 12.5°, and Rockwell hardness reaches 61 HRC. The black Micarta canvas handle provides a secure grip during repeated slicing.
