I dont make many kitchen knives, but I made one like this for my mother for mother's day ( or maybe it was her birthday, I cant remember) and it is the only knife she uses anymore.

This one is pretty close in design.

The blade is 1095 that has been clay coated for a hamon. It is 3/32nds thick so it is quite a slicer. The spine is fileworked for an added touch.

The handle is a laminate of ironwood and canary wood. I really like how they look together. The handle is held on with two normal and one mosaic pin.

There is no sheath with this one. I can make a drawer sheath for it for a little extra if it is desired.

Dimensions
Blade - 7" tip to handle
OAL - 11 1/2"

Price - $165 shipped to CONUS. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

The first "I'll take it" gets it.

Your work is amazing. I love your logo as well.:thumbup:
 
It actually hurts that I can't buy this knife right now... PLEASE make more of these in the future. That wood combo is awesome and the shape/ thickness is just right.

As always from you, a beautiful blade.
 
Matt, you have an uncanny knack for making gorgeous users! :cool:

I think a model or two- if not an entire line- of kitchen knives by you would do very well. :thumbup:
 
This is still here? I can't resist any longer. Besides how cool will it be to have an awesome custom that I can use everyday? Looks like I'll be doing more of the prep work in our kitchen.........I'll take it! I need your paypal addy.
 
Seriously, will you be making more of these? I see that you aren't taking orders, but when (& if) things pick back up, I would love to buy one of these for the kitchen.
