New Chef Knife for the end of September. I have just finished a Brute de Forge Western Chef Knife. This Chef Knife is made from 1095 high carbon steel. This style knife is great for all kitchen duties, it is a very reliable general purpose chef knife. It can process meat fish, vegetables etc. This knife has a cutting edge of 8 1/4 inches (very easy blade length to handle) and a blade height of 2 1/4 inches at the heel which gives medium to larger hands ample clearance from the cutting board. The knife has been heat treated and tempered to approx. 61 on the Rockwell hardness scale. The handle is made of stabilized and dyed Birds Eye Maple with Black Palm Wood at the bolster and it is segmented with Purple G10 and Cream Paper Micarta spacers. Purple G10 liners with Brown and Black micarta pins complete the build. This blade also comes with a hand made leather Saya (sheath).
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Thanks
