An absolutely stunning paring knife by bladesmith Don Carlos Andrade, hand forged from 1095 carbon steel, and quenched to produce a jaw-dropping rainbow hamon, a rare trait in Don's smaller blades. Etched and polished in Don's typically silky blade finishing style, the 95mm / 3.7" edge is thin and sharp, perfect for precise slices and detail work in the hand. Sculpted from a gorgeous piece of stabilized Hawaiian Koa wood, the handle tapers gently to the front, every detail accounted for with micro-facets at ever edge, a unique, laminated wood inlay, and a single silicon bronze pin. A cloth-covered saya is included.
