overall Length | 426mm
blade length | 301mm

weight: 249g
This is by far the largest knife I have made and i have to say that i am chuffed to bits with how it turned out. With a full length hamon that is fully visible on the left side of teh blade and peaks through on the right towards the tip, this stunner can be displayed in either orientation and is sure to be a highlight of anyones collection.
This knife’s mono steel blade is made from 26c3 carbon steel. Similar in composition to Hitachi White line of steels with high levels of carbon and very little impurities, but with the a small addition of chromium leading to higher edge retention. This steel performs at a high level while offering greater toughness and edge retnetion than its Japanese counter parts. This steel takes fine edges and is easy to sharpen while producing fine burrs in the process. With a asymmetrical lightly convex grind, this knife is designed for a right handed user. as a result of grind, this knife performs unlike any knife i have used previously and goes where you tell making it a treat to cut with. Smooth on the left hand side of the blade a hamon runs the full length of the blade, the right hand side is heavily forged.
The take down handle is made from wood reclaimed from a pallet coming from overseas. The wood is super dense and has a deep mahogany colour. Handle is sealed with multiple layers of natural tung oil.
Each knife comes securely stored in its own wooden sheath and wrapped in a furoshiki.
PS. as a special little bonus this knife will come with a few extra wood handle choices that each can be swapped to achieve desired aesthetic. I have some pretty brutalist inspired brunt wood handles using rasps which i think are pretty neat. last knife i made with this tang design so 3 additional handles will be provided/.
