Forged from Salem Straub's house-made 410 stainless steel-clad san mai with CruForge-V carbon edge, this 220mm / 8.66" chef knife brings strength and versatility in a lightweight, balanced package. Thin and sharp at the edge, the bevel geometry finds a welcomed middle ground, slim enough for effortless slices and detail work, while providing enough heft for more demanding cuts. In beautiful, stabilized boxelder with reclaimed cymbal spacer and black G10 bolster, the handle is contoured for a natural, comfortable feel in the hand.
