Hansen \u0026amp; Sons' G-Carta — Salem's steel and Don's forge, brought together in one small, exceptional tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 110mm blade carries real presence for its size: at 26mm tall at the heel, it runs thin, straight, and true down to a gently upswept tip, equally at home breaking down produce, trimming, or handling detail work that calls for precision over reach. Salem's damascus, worked in 1084 and 15N20, flows in long, straight lines across the blade like grain through wood — a quieter, more meditative pattern than his mosaic work, but no less striking for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere blade meets handle, there's no separate bolster to interrupt the line. The steel gives way directly to a sculpted piece of G-Carta in Don's Wa-Alsace fusion form, its surface heavily textured for a sure, tactile grip and its color a deep, saturated wash of blues, greens, and violet that shifts and pools like something seen underwater. Compact, purposeful, and entirely one-of-a-kind, this small knife punches well above its size. A cloth-covered saya is included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Don Carlos Andrade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54511271936275,"sku":"DCA-HCK86","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/1749\/8643\/files\/don-carlos-andrade-modern-alsace-damascus-utility-110mm-1252892388.jpg?v=1787418278","url":"https:\/\/eatingtools.com\/products\/modern-alsace-damascus-utility-110mm","provider":"Eatingtools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
