Bladesmith Dylan Ambrosini sources the perfect cut of walnut wood locally, preferring noble material with plain origins and treating naturally beautiful grain as a welcome bonus rather than the starting point. This comfortable, simply sculpted Western handle is a clear statement of that preference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade is the same dense, 500-layer house-made damascus found in \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/eatingtools.com\/products\/the-intruder-chef-256mm\" title=\"The Intruder Chef 256mm\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Intruder Chef\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, one of three pieces in his debut collection, forged from 125Cr1 and 15n20 high-carbon alloys.

At the handle's butt, a brass retention nut caps the thru-tang construction, filed with the same composure found in the handle itself, understated brass fittings complement the walnut and steel rather than compete with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 223mm \/ 8.8\" with an overall weight of 212g \/ 7.5oz, the blade carries mass that fills the hand and a balance point that sits an inch ahead of the heel for a steady, confident feel.
