Description

***MADE TO ORDER*** - Although some knives may be in stock some may not, If not I will custom make the knives for you in 2-3 weeks!



This is a custom designed 9" Japanese chef knife with a beautiful unique cast burl handle. The hybrid chef knife is designed as a hybrid style between a Santoku and classic chef. The blade is extra wide at 58mm or 2.25" as many chefs prefer. It's made of high quality 67 layer Japanese Damascus VG-10 steel, with a HRC rating of 60-62 it can provide a much sharper, harder edge and stay sharp for up to 10x longer then an average stainless steel chef knife. The VG-10 core is clad in 67 layers of a stainless steel Damascus to protect it.. The handle is bolted on with brass bushings and a stainless steel threaded rod as well as glued using a high quality epoxy. This knife also features a mosaic center pin.



**Please do not confuse my VG10 damascus chef knives with regular carbon damascus knives from Pakistan. The carbon damascus knives you may see in other shops are made of inferior steel and quickly loose their edge, rust and contaminate your food**



**Handle info**

The handle on this knife is made using a piece of natural edged Yellow box burl or Maple burl cast under pressure with a green/black alumilite resin. Although the handles start out bookmatched after shaping the handle the patterns on either side are completely different.



- Knife comes in black box.



Every blade I produce is made with a unique specially selected handle. All of my handles are made of highly figured and exotic woods which I personally select and craft by hand. This knife is highly polished and finished with a durable natural polymerized oil.
