Please Note: This knife is made to order, and therefore takes 6 months to make and ship. Since each knife is hand made from unique materials, yours will be slightly different from the pictures shown of a previous knife I made.
”Tribal Chef” 10in (250mm) k-tip gyuto chef knife. The tribal tattoo inspired handle was crafted from a slab of stabilized maple, and inlaid with black resin design. The herringbone pattern damascus blade reminds me of a feather. Includes walnut saya.
The blade is made from VG10 core hardened to 60 HRC. Multiple layers of stainless are forged on both sides of the blade that protect the core and result in the damascus layer pattern. VG10 is a high hardness stainless that doesn’t require the maintenance or care of a carbon steel. VG10 blades should be sharpened with a water stone, synthetic stone, or diamond. Do not use a honing steel on this blade. The edge angle is sharpened to 17 degrees and then stropped to a super sharp finish. The blade is 10” (254 mm) long, 2.31” (59 mm) tall, & 0.1” (2.5 mm) thick at the spine. Total length of the knife is 15.19” (386 mm). ⠀⠀
