Jade kitchen set

[BenR.T.]

These are 2 kitchen knives I just finished. The handles are Jade G10 and the pins are carbon fiber, I made up some special carbon fiber mosaic pins just for these. The blades have a forced patina that helps protect the blade, and I think really adds to the overall look.

Nice! I love carbon steel kitchen knives! The patina is great too!

I really like the look of the smaller one. I could see that blade profile as an EDC. They both look like good kitchen workhorses that are far more interesting than a manufactured blade.

Thanks you guys, I enjoy making kitchen knives because I know they will get used almost daily.

When I saw the title of the thread I was expecting to see some nice jade stone!

Although G10 is no substitute, those look to be perfect knives for kitchen use. I like both of them VERY much, especially the top one in the first two pics.

Thanks Peter, I find that the G10 works really well for kitchen use, as it is zero maintenance.
