Hello there.
Since I started making knives, making full size chef knives that perform well have been the goal. I have had the first one out on a passaround here in sweden, and these are the ones following. I'll let these go for 290 usd each (plus 25 usd insured shipping from me in sweden) as a introduction to bladeforums. Paypal goods & services.
Full warranty against defects, free refurb/sharpening as long as buyer pays the shipping.
1095 full tang are made from 2,3 mm stock. O1 stick tangs are made from 6 mm stock. All tapered, the video demo should show this. If you want measurements or more details let me know.
Handground freehand, sent to pro HT, each blade is tested to spec hardness. They are all what I think thin convexes, except for the cutting edge which is sharpened on waterstones.
They are all handrubbed to a 800 grit satin finish, and handpolished.
They are handmade so there is (what I consider) some inconsistencies/flaws. I'll make sure each potential buyer is well informed of these before purchase.
I'm going to link one sample image for each knife. Ask if you want them uploaded here and I'll arrange it. More photos are here:
