EDIT: LAST HOURS FOR THE KINGWOOD SAYA OFFER IN THE COMMENTS SECTION BELOW
EDIT2: SOLD
Hey guys! Since i have been extremely short on time it has been really challenging for me to work on bigger blades, sorry for not taking orders recently on these bad boys but im really happy to be able to finish this one.
I started it on December and since then it was sitting on my workshop asking for a handle and finish.
Lets start with its geometry!
Needless to say that 171 grams is an unbelievable weight considering a thick spine and a 270mm blade. The distal taper and overall grind on this knife was definitely one of my best.
This knife is a slightly modified version of the traditional sujihiki. In my version of it, i did the edge flatter than the traditional, meant to offer you a nice all around use and still perform amazingly in all kind of meats. The first 5" of the blade will contact the board perfectly flat, while the rest have a very smooth belly towards the spine which will slice meat like a scimitar.
Its handle is something that really reminds me a "space view" from a desert contacting ocean. I really LOVE how it does look and how the blue really pops out in the build. It is made out of stabilized dyed maple with an ebony core.
Now to my favorite part
Its geometry features an extremely acute convex grind that will slice food, mostly meat like NOTHING. Salmon, steak, barbecue, veggies, this blade will handle all pretty much nice. This being said, its grind will be really exceptional on meats.
While the blade is giant, it is completely well centered and flat.
Both spine and choil are rounded, spine is polished which gives it an extremely sexy look.
Satisfaction guaranteed, this blade will definitely impress you once you feel how light and well balanced it is given the size.
270mm blade length
45mm wide at the heel
3,2mm thickest point
Sandvik 14C28N steel - Same composition of AEBL - i consider both to be the stainless version of 52100 - they have an extremely fine grain and REALLY really tough (even at 60~61hrc)
Delivered in a nice zipped pouch
I dont take Paypal
Im from Brazil
sold
500$ shipped - have tons of references, most of them based in US.
preferably claimed via email fvazcustomknives@gmail.com
