Clean lines and an effective grind

This 1095 blade sports a beautiful satin finished hamon with a stabilized pomele figure sapele handle

The C-grind is an unusual asymmetrical geometry, where the dominant side features a short convex bevel and the off side has a very short primary bevel followed by a spine Hight hollow grind

this aids in food release and balance with this large blade, with the radiused dominant bevel encouraging food to peel away, while the hollow minimized contact to reduce friction and moisture seals

This knife has an 8.5 inch blade, but maintains a very gentle weight of 10 oz

Handle has a nickel silver bolster, black G10 spacer and a gorgeous piece of sapele. the pomele figure appears as a set of ribbon like curls that catch light brightly

It has a long hexagonal cross section with plenty of indexing points for edge alignment
