Available now is one of my 8" chef's knives, made of .098" thick AEB-L, with heat treating done by me, in-house, including cryogenic treatment. This one is right at about RC 62.
AEB-L is a unique steel, in that it has next to no alloying elements to offer increased wear resistance, having just enough chromium to make it stainless steel, and only enough carbon to provide great hardness, making for fantastic edge stability and yet still being easy enough to maintain. Blade features full distal tapering with a machine finish to reduce sticking, and is ground to .004" previous to sharpening.
This knife features a slightly upraised handle, in stabilized Amboyna, with stainless steel pins. Both heartwood and sapwood to offer a bit of contrast. Handle tapers from thinner at the front to thicker at the back, allowing for almost neutral blade balance when gripped forward.
Price: $OLD via Paypal, shipped to anywhere in the continental US. Contact me for shipping elsewhere and we'll find a way. I'll absorb all Paypal fees.

Thanks for looking!
