We may also have a number of runner-ups who could win a $50.00 shop credit good toward this killer cool blade!
Warning!!! . . . This knife is awesome and you are about to fall in love!!!! . . .
I do have to wonder how it will cut once it is sharpened??? . . . Huh???
Brother Dan ground these bad boys down so thin (approximately .010" thick at the edge) that I used it to dress out a batch of avocadoes before it was sharpened!!!
I should have filmed it, and I would have if I had known it was going to cut this well without an edge!!!
I just measured the thickness of 3 Post-it notes and the stack measured out at .0125" thick! Three Post-it notes are 20% thicker than this edge is prior to sharpening!
Nice to know that if you ever dull it . . . You might not know!!!
This approx. 8" long AEB-L blade at .110" thick sports a 1 1/2 inch High Saber ground bevel that is ready for anything that your kitchen can throw at it!
This Chef knife is solely designed to be a slicer! It is not recommended for heavy prying or throwing at Zombies!!!
This saber grind is high enough that it would be a full-height grind on many other narrower chef knife models!
The tip is scary thin!
The new Resiprene-C Handle is everything you could hope for and it is heavily rounded!
The Res-C provides a non-slip grip and is made from our softer Res-C material.
The finger ramp provides excellent control for both your thumb and index finger!
Brother Dan really outdid himself on this one!!!
Nice Job Dan!!!
Let's Drink!
