The profile of the blade was designed with the push cut method in mind, however the belly of the blade still allows rock chopping.
The blade has a full flat grind with both edges beveled 50/50.
This knife is used for cutting SOFT FOOD ONLY specifically vegetables and boneless protein. No chopping of bones, cartilage or any other hard material. The blade is heat treated to a hardness over 63 Rockwell, so hard food can and will chip the edge or break the blade. High hardness will keep the edge very sharp for much longer than any stainless steel blade. However extra care and regular maintenance is required for all high carbon steel blades.
If proper care is taken this knife will last generations.
The handle and saya are both vacuum stabilized. Stabilization helps prevent the wood from swelling from moisture and prevents mould and bacteria growth. This makes it suitable for use in any professional kitchen.
Every aspect of this blade was completed by a single craftsman, not built in a factory. The handmade nature of this product makes it one of a kind and completely unique.
This is perfect for any professional chef that wants to show off in the kitchen, or have a precision tool that will last their entire career.
An ideal gift for a chef, cooking enthusiast, knife lover, Forged in Fire 🔥 fan or anyone who can appreciate the beauty of this handcrafted item.
The engraved and epoxy inlayed walnut saya is included free of charge.
