Approximately 7-1/2" paring knife (3-1/4" blade), made from 67 Layer Japanese Damascus Steel with a VG-10 core, with a Rockwell hardness of 60 - 62. This hardened steel will hold an edge for a long time, and if touched up regularly with a steel or ceramic rod, will slice easily for years.

You select the wood species - please allow 2 weeks for manufacturing and finishing before shipping.

Knife handles are finished with a Danish Oil, to a satin finish.

Please do not wash in dishwasher for longevity of the wood finish and knife edge. Cleaning with soap and water with a scrub brush and hand dried works well.
