This large chef knife has been hand forged from laminated steel, subtle layers of folded iron steel over a high carbon steel core. The blade is long and lean, lightweight and ground very thin for cutting performance. The handle is made from a rare piece of 5,700 year old bog yew with a stainless steel cap.
 
Total length: 340mm
Blade length: 195mm 
Depth at heel: 50mm 
 
Note: this blade is made with carbon steel which, unlike stainless steel, is 'reactive'; this means the blade will develop a patina and will change the appearance of the blade surface over time and can rust if not properly cared for.
