Swordfish - 10in (254mm) Damascus Gyuto - Raindrop - Wavy Handle

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.

“Swordfish” 10in (254mm) Damascus gyuto chef knife. The bed of silver leaf flake at the center of this knife's handle is graced by a layer of deep blue cloud-like resin, making for a soothing and stark mix of colors. The clear poly resin coat highlights the detailed interactions between the metal flakes and the resin. This knife comes with my signature wavy handle texture, a feature that enhances gripping capacity which is especially useful when working with wet hands or a wet knife. Includes sleek walnut saya shown.

The blade is a modern take on a classic Japanese knife. The gyuto inspired blade is made from VG-10 steel core clad with layers of stainless for durability (and it looks awesome). The folded layers of stainless are what give the blade it's unique appearance and protects the hard inner core of the knife.

The handle is a hybrid style that makes it extremely comfortable to use, no matter your knife grip preference. An ambidextrous recess at the bolster area improves pinch grip comfort and stability. The full handle also provides plenty of space for a standard grip. The unique wavy texture enhances the grip, especially when wet or greasy.
