The Chefs Grim Cleaver

[john gage]

Here is the proto for the first of my kitchen knives. This one is a bit high end , but I will be making these in stainless and G10.

Specs:

9 3/4" overall
Flat ground Alabama Damascus steel Blade with a 4 3/4" edge
Dyed and stabilized Box Elder Burl grip w/ Green G10 bolsters over a tapered Black G10 liner

I hope you guys like this one.

Cheers,

John

Why "Grim", John?
This is a beautiful kitchen knife that will also never stop being
a major conversation piece with anyone who sees it...

Again, your photography is inspiring!

All the best,

Very nice. I'd love to use that knife.

 

[John M Cohea]

One or the nicest cleavers I've ever seen!

 

[WyoNonSmith]

How does it handle when cutting? Like a meat cleaver or more like a short chinese cleaver? It doesn't look like it has much distal taper.

Beautiful, nonetheless. I'd love to try it out.
