I have gotten this one ready for service. This is a full size all-around chef knife.
The bevel geometry is designed to perform majority of food prep tasks.
The spine thickness at heel allows for a "workhorse" like heft to it.
The convexed bevels minimize food sticking while still retaining plenty of "slicey-ness"
The distal taper allows for fine tip performance. Care must be taken to keep the tip intact.
I think a serious professional who loves carbon steel will love this knife. It is quite similar geometry to the famed Masamoto KS.
An astute home chef will also enjoy this knife very much. The handle is burned in with hot glue for removal/replacement down the road.
.14" thick by 9.5" x 2" blade
Masur Birch Wa handle
Burned in handle (removable)
26C3 Swedish Steel - water quenched with a 300 deg. F temper (3x) approx. RC64-65 hardness.
The bevel geometry is convex with hollow ground fullers on each side. Full distal taper.
Chamfered spine and choil.
The blade has a belt finish and forced patina.
Asking $400 Shipped CONUS. Please message me for additional details or intent to purchase.
Thank you for your consideration.
