Just finished up one of my 8" model chef's knives, made of .098" thick Crucible CPM-S35vn stainless steel, with heat treating done by me, in-house, including cryogenic treatment. This one is right at about RC 62.

Crucible CPM-S35vn is a very wear resistant and relatively tough stainless steel, and takes a great, fine edge and keeps it. Blade features full distal tapering with a satin finish to reduce sticking, and is ground to .004" previous to sharpening.

This knife features a gorgeous, heavily figured handle of stabilized Koa, with stainless steel pins. Handle tapers from thinner at the front to thicker at the back, allowing for almost neutral blade balance when gripped forward.

Same knife, but I'm toying with taking photos of these in portrait format - let me know if it sucks or not.:)

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!

That's what I'm talkin' about! :thumbup: Not only does that look awesome, but it will unquestionably be equally awesome in the kitchen. If I did not already have an 8 inch chef's knife, I would pick this one up without hesitation. Still I am sorely tempted to get this. Ugh!
 
Thanks, Chris!

There's a running joke with some of my customers that know me well... I haven't managed to keep a good one of these for my own use. They always sell. I end up using a text mule or a beater. Secretly, I hope one of these gorgeous ones one sell, so I get to have something nice, for a change.

:)
 
I'll take it! Please confirm that knife is still available, and I will send Paypal.

Thanks,
Mark
 
Looks like this one is your's, Mark. Thank you!
