High End, Handmade, Professional Chef Knife

Custom Japanese style chef knife, hand forged with 67 layers of damascus steel, boasting a hardness of 60hrc. This isn't your average kitchen knife. It's custom made for top professionals. The wood of the handle is handcrafted Manzanita burl. Very rare, durable and expensive. The wood is not dyed or treated in any way. Just finished with old world oils and waxes that bring out the full richness and beauty of the wood. One of the most important features of these knives is that the species of wood in the handles are always very dense hardwoods. This is critical because the blades are very thick and weighty, and need large, dense handles in order to balance properly. Wielding one of these fine custom knives is a completely different experience to anything you've used in the past. The company that produces these knives has made very few and have allowed us to represent them with a few select pieces at auction. This would make a great gift for the special chef in your life. We charge only one $5 shipping charge for all lots won. So whether you win one lot or every lot, all items won will be shipped for one flat $5 shipping charge.
