Veggie Monster! {Curly Koa}

[BenR.T.]

I just finished this big boy up last week, and I figured I would share it with you all! This is my new santoku design. The blade is 14c28n stainless. I am really liking this steel, it takes a VERY fine edge, holds it nicely and is very corrosion resistant. The handle is some very nice stabilized curly Koa. It has a tapered tang and my copper/carbon fiber pins. The choil is nicely rounded and polished for a comfortable grip.
OAL is 12", and the blade is just a hair over 7".

This should make one heck of a Veggie chopper!!

That's some really nice work there Ben. Design is nice, looks well done and very clean.

Beyond that though, 14c28 is a really great steel in general for a stainless, and makes an exceptional kitchen knife. And that tapered tang is the bomb. Love it.

Thanks very much. 14c28n is a fantastic steel for the kitchen, I have been very happy with it in mine!
