Taylor Chef Knife #7
This is my 7th iteration of my popular signature chef knife, A Hand forged Versatile modern western chef knife.
The blade made from hand forged Damascus using 15N20 and British made 1084 high carbon steel, stacked and manipulated into a striking ladder twist pattern.
The blade is then maliciously stone polished giving it a very consistent geometry and misty mirror (Kasumi) finish. (See video)
The geometry is very thin with a medium tapered spine, the bevels have a very slight convex geometry that increases close to the edge that allows a thin blade but a strong edge.
This knife is designed as a versatile chef knife but it's thin geometry makes it stronger at fine slicing tasks over tasks such as chopping root veg and deboning.
The handle is modern ergonomic shape made from the British Claro Walnut slightly on the larger size, a warm toned hardwood with strong figuring, this is paired with a brass bolster and chamfered stainless steel cap.
