This chef knife is hand forged from laminated steel; a mild steel jacket on either side of a 52100 high carbon steel core. A little narrower and a lot thinner than the other chef knives in this batch - great for shredding veggies. The handle is handmade from stabilised London Plum wood with a brass ferrule and domed brass pin.
 
This blade is made with high carbon steel which, unlike stainless steel, is 'reactive'; this means the blade will develop a patina, changing the appearance of the blade surface as you use it (see T&C's). I prefer to work with high carbon steels over stainless steels due to their incredible edge retention and ease of sharpening at home. This blade can rust if not properly cared for. Handwash only
