This high performance chef’s knife is a perfect choice as a primary knife in the kitchen. The long, deep-bellied blade is well suited for chopping vegetables and slicing meats. The gentle arc of the cutting edge is perfect for a rocking chopping motion with plenty of finger clearance over a cutting board. At 8-1/3 inches, this is among the most popular sizes for a primary chef’s knife. It is large enough to get most any task done, yet short enough to do it with ease.
The blade is hand ground CPM-MagnaCut with a satin finish. CPM-MagnaCut is a new premium stainless steel created by Crucible with the help of professional metallurgist Dr. Larrin Thomas. MagnaCut combines the high toughness of CPM-4V with the corrosion resistance of CPM-20CV. This creates a perfect blade steel option for knives that need high toughness and great edge retention while still being easy to maintain. The corners of the spine and choil have been rounded to eliminate hot spots.
Desert ironwood (Olneya tesota) handle scales are secured to the full tang using bronze pins. Ironwood is a rare wood that is only found in the valleys of the Sonoran Desert below 2,500 foot elevation. It is among the most desirable of exotic woods used for knives. The contoured handle is equally comfortable in a pinch grip and when held further back. Like other knives, this knife should not be put in the dishwasher.
This is sure to become a high performance kitchen favorite!
