Chefs knife in 0-1 and G10 handle material. These take lot of patience to make. But when they turn out like this it’s worth it!

Very nicely done! Has a French style (Sabatier) "spear point" blade that's nicely tall at the heel.

I'm always surprised there's so little conversation about kitchen knives here. I have many handmade kitchen knives, but no handmade hunting knives. I use kitchen knives everyday, but hardly ever use a hunting knife!

What's the purpose of the scallop at the blade heel/bolster? Blade length?

The scalloped area at the blade heel is to have 100% edge on the cutting board and not a wide part of the blade at the plunge line areas. It’s about 7” blade length.

I love my kitchen knives! I need a chefs knife like this myself.

2021 needs to be the year I make one of these for myself. I have a few paring knives and 1 killer 5” utility but I need an upgraded chefs knife.

That's a winner.

I don't talk about my kitchen knives because none are what I would call special. My knife block is full of a set of old Chicago Cutlery I rehandle with Mountain Mahogany, wood from a tree where I loved to hunt. There are a couple others laying out which are blades I bought and added handles. I use a steel to maintain an edge in the kitchen and about once a year I'll recut the edge with my Edge Pro.

It’s a ferric chloride etch finish. A pre patina so to speak. I use 1/8” on this pattern since it’s so tall and gets thinner down as you get to the tip really nicely.

That's a damn good looking knife.

Do you water jet out the pattern?

I cut every pattern by hand and allow for small variations to morph the patterns into the best evolution they can be. I don’t believe this can be done using computer to drive the product. My hands and choices do. I can be super precise also cutting out and grinding to a scribe line I know a machine can not duplicate by the nature of the process. I choose the control vs ease smile that’s my experience anyways. It’s all in the small changes I find.

Good looking knife indeed......as to a good 5" Utility.....I have learned with all my time in a Kitchen, that this is the best all around knife a cook/chef can have!

Yeah, those wide, thin, flat grinds are somewhat of a pain. Well more than somewhat.

Very nice job.
