I will take $500.00 for this knife, that is the lowest I can go considering the materials and time I have into the piece. I would also narrow down the handle and refinish if someone prefers that shape more.
This is a very thin blade, perfect for vegetables and boneless proteins. It is not stainless so it will need to build a patina up before it handles the white onions and other similar ingredients. Devin's steel is inspiring in and of itself.
Original sales post below:
Rain Drop 1095/Ni steel from Devin Thomas. Stabilized Spalted Jatoba Octagon handle with marbled carbon fiber ferrule and G10 spacers.
The blade itself has 7" of cutting edge and 1/16" inch stock thickness. The distal taper starts about midway along the blade length.
I have finished the blade with dozens of etches and sand cycles. The finish is durable and not very reactive for 1095 steel. Price is $650 or $720 if you would like a curly maple (aqua fortis) saya. Please allow a week for me to make the saya. You can pay through paypal or mail a check. Shipping is included inside the United States. Let me know if you have any questions. If I still have this come November you can see it in person at the NCCA show. Photo of saya is an example
