Yaxell Super Gou Chef's Knife 255 mm, art. 37110

The Yaxell Super Gou 255 mm chef's knife is an all-purpose kitchen tool built for daily cutting of meat, fish, vegetables and herbs in large quantities. This blade format is traditionally the workhorse of any kitchen, so the quality and reliability of the blade directly affect the speed and safety of staff working in the kitchen of a school, kindergarten, hospital or other institution serving meals on a large scale.

The blade is made from Yaxell Super Gou steel — a multi-layer Damascus construction of 161 layers built around a hard SG2 steel core. A 15° per-side sharpening angle is typical of Japanese knives and delivers an edge suited for precise, clean cutting. The red Micarta canvas handle resists moisture, grease and frequent washing, which matters for tools used daily over long shifts.

Specifications

For school and hospital food service kitchens, a chef's knife of this class is a core tool that determines how quickly staff can prep ingredients for large numbers of portions. Hand washing right after use, thorough drying and storage in a dedicated knife block away from other utensils help extend the blade's working life and keep its cutting performance. Such a knife can be listed among the kitchen equipment items in tender purchase specifications for schools, kindergartens and hospitals.
