RAN 69 LAYERS:Blade:
The core material VG10 "super steel" is composed of Cobalt, Molybdenum, Vanadium and Carbon. VG10 stainless steel is clad with 34 layers of soft and hard high-carbon stainless steel on each side, producing 69 layered rust-resistant Damascus-look. The blade has an extremely sharp cutting edge. Our special heat treatment gives our blades the outstanding hardness rating of HRC61 on the Rockwell scale, ensuring long lasting cutting performance.
Handle:
The handle is made out of FDA-approved black Canvas-Micarta, which is an odorless and enormously durable material made of resin and linen. This material lasts decades. 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 blade is made from 69 layers of damascus steel and a core of Japanese VG10 steel hardened up to 61HRC. VG10 is known to be very hard and can also easily be sharpened. The damascus steel is in nice contrast with the dark and light lines that run over the entire length of the blade. This combination of the type of steel and the finish ensures that the Yaxell Ran knives are efficient, but also look amazing.

*Pakkawood is an artificial material that is manufactured for a very specific purpose, to be resilient and resistant to hard use. Pakkawood, while not a natural wood itself, still uses wood in its manufacturing process. Japanese knives are made for tough, repeated use and therefore need to be durable (especially to justify the initial investment as some Japanese knives can carry a substantial price tag!).
The reason why it is so easy to find a pakkawood knife. All is due to the fact that this material is hard wearing and resilient, which is designed to last as long as the material of the blade.
