With its eye-catching geometry, this knife is a unique creation handmade by Niko Nicolaides in his studio in Detroit. The elegant, hand sanded satin finish of the carbon steel beautifully tapers out into an integral bolster, which smoothly meets with natural, burlap, and black micarta to form the faceted handle. This is where simple, yet sophisticated design meets a well-balanced composition of height and length for unparalleled performance by the nearly-but-not-quite-straight edge in tackling a wide range of the chef’s desires.
