Welcome to my knife shop😀 You will find new items here for sale most every week. I have found I am more productive and push myself further producing work to sell here on my website. Therefore I no longer take any kind of custom order or reserve items for people. I find it better to concentrate on making the very best quality work and be able to offer more items for sale. These days I use Instagram to show my working process, and I also use Instagram to give notifications of new stock, and to Auction one off items. I intend to add a fresh Mailing list for a simple notification of when new knives come in stock for those who do not use Instagram, which I will add here shortly.
220mm convex forged, slim western Gyuto.
£662.00
This is my fully convex forged geometry, slim western design. Combining a rock solid feel, no flex at all, medium weight, and a grind focused on feel of cut. I will not wedge in harder food, but there is a distinct feel of parting and excellent food release, both from the very convex , fully polished bevel and the shape of the upper knife geometry in larger food.
This one perfectly presented in my forged copper bolster, combined with a lovely piece of walnut , now beautifully darkening after several coats of oil.
Absolutely class combination.
I have finished the bevel to a nice polish with finger stones, using very hard, Nakayama to polish, then bringing back some contrast with a softer Hakka-ish finger stone.
I will include a prepared finger stone of each to get you started.
