KITCHEN KNIVES
Some examples of previously sold knives.
NUVOKU
The Nuvoku is a mid-sized chef knife designed for all-around kitchen use. Key design features include a tall heel for ample knuckle clearance, a sculpted handle and thin bolster for a secure and comfortable grip in a variety of positions, a pronounced distal taper and thin edge for cutting efficiency, and a modest edge curvature for ease of slicing, chopping, and rocking cuts.
This shown example features a "stacked Ws" pattern-welded blade forged from a mixture of German tool steel and sawblade steel for superb edge retention, toughness, and ease of sharpening. The handle is stabilized curly Hawaiian Koa, while the bolster and spacers are made of carbon fiber, stainless steel, and G10. Marine-grade epoxy and a carbon fiber pin hold it all together.
BURLWOOD WESTERN CHEF
This western-style chef knife sports a long cutting edge with just enough belly towards the point for easy cutting and slicing of just about anything you'd want on your plate. The forged, high-tungsten carbon steel blade gets crazy sharp and will out-cut any other knife in the kitchen.
A slim, sculpted handle of stabilized amboyna burl, offset with titanium spacers and a carbon fiber bolster keep the knife light and comfortable in the hand.
CHEESE CLEAVER
Funky little damascus cheese cleaver with three-steel blade, carbon fiber bolster and pin, stainless spacer and stabilized tasmanian blackwood handle.
This knife was a lot of fun to make. Simple lines giving way to a bold interplay of patterns and textures. Handy little cutter, too.
BURL AND RAYS DAMASCUS NUVOKU
Nuvoku chef knife with a 205mm sun-ray pattern damascus steel blade. The handle is stabilized redwood burl with stainless steel and African blackwood spacers. 75mm tall at the heel, almost 3.5mm at the spine with a full distal taper towards the point.
This is a particularly stout and broad variant of the Nuvoku, the linebacker in your kitchen.
SMALL SAN-MAI CHEF
Small western-style chef knife with three-steel carbon damascus jacket over a 52100 carbon steel core. Stabilized European Beech handle with carbon fiber bolster and stainless steel spacer and pin.
With a blade length of just over 6 inches and a height of nearly 2 inches at the heel, there's plenty of blade here for the big stuff, but it's still compact and nimble enough for the smaller cutting tasks that comprise the bulk of our work in the kitchen.
CARBON CHEF
The forged high carbon / tungsten steel blade on this European style chef knife will take and hold an extremely sharp edge. A gentle curve towards the belly of the blade promotes ease of slicing and rocking cuts on your cutting board.
The contoured carbon fiber handle is light, comfortable, and strong. Argentium silver pins provide an elegant, bright contrast to the black carbon fiber.
SMALL PETTY
Often the smaller knives are the ones we use the most. Slim, light, sharp and easy, this carbon steel petty is both versatile and highly effective.
The blade is forged high carbon / tungsten steel and the sculpted handle is stabilized olive wood.
