This is easily the maddest knife I’ve made in my Forge Geometry range, it is a complete one off , taking the principles of the forging and finishing to an art piece level, a celebration of texture and forms, whilst never sacrificing practicality.
The knife is made from nickel and steel damascus cladding forged in end rather than flat layers to achieve a vivid pattern and some wood grain... the core is the wonderful sc125 at full hardness.
This knife is a first in that it has added texture which gains knife height and thinness into the middle of the knife, as well as the Damascus the effect is striking!
The knife also has a fully take down handle, and comes with a one off sculpted ebony handle as well as a standard wa wenge, both are epoxy bedded for consistent “snap into place” fit up.
There is also a choice of end fittings , heavy or light version for a choice of balance!
The knife cuts as you’d expect with this geometry, the feel is a little lighter than a standard knife, but the spine is still thick so very little flex, it falls through food with fantastic release, this knife is more like a thin cleaver from the middle to the edge and with the extra height, but with Gyuto versatility;)
Just check out the dimensions :)
