255mm iron clad chef knife

As part of the premium Taylor knife collection This Chef knife is truly one of a kind, created at the peak of my current craftsmanship, designed to be a prized piece and heirloom for its owner.
This lightweight hand forged chef knife is made from Sheffield made "Sheffcut" a culinary high carbon steel clad with twisted wrought iron salvaged from a historic cart wheel. it is paired with the best prime English burr elm hardwood, with a chamfered brass spacer and stainless steel cap.
The spine has a aesthetic chamfered geometry, the blade is hand forged forged with thin geometry thickness with a gradual taper to a thin tip, the blade has forged satin finish and has been deep etched to reveal the twisted wrought iron fibrous structure, the bevels have been meticulously stones polished using high quality natural whetstones to bring out the detail of the wrought iron and contrast between the wrought iron and high carbon steel.
Please note that the wrought iron cladding oxidizes quickly so requires extra care to keep the mirror polish, rust and marking can be avoided by cleaning right after use, not cutting high acidic foods like lemons and limes and kept dry when not in use and coated with food grade oil when not in use for extended period of time.
