Gidgee Chef
This knife was built around this lovely piece of presentation Australian Ringed Gidgee. And it's quite literally built around and into the handle as I love insetting the blade into the handle, wrapping the two together as one. And I promise the knife works better than it looks.
The blade is ladder pattern damascus (and really has to be seen to be appreciated fully). The steels are 80CRV2 and 15N20.
The handle is made from a single piece of wood, split and re-connected to keep the grain flow in tact, separated by a nickel silver spacer.
Custom leather blade sleeve included.
Blade length 7.8", width (at heel) 2.1", overall 13.25"
