Daily Driver
This is another beautiful daily driver.
I built this knife to work hard and look great doing it. To me, western style chef knives are 100% about function and I wanted to bring in beauty as well.
It’s sturdy, ergonomic and user friendly, with a shape and feel that make it comfortable in real kitchen work. This is the kind of knife that gets noticed in a serious kitchen.
I chose a random pattern Damascus for its natural character.
The highly figured, dyed and stabilized premium maple burl adds personality and ties everything together in a way that feels strong, clean and bold.
I also made the spine functional for sliding produce off the board or countertop, because details like that matter on a knife meant to be used every day. This one came together as a hardworking knife with a little extra presence.
