8" and 5" chefs

[Benr.t]

Here are a couple chefs I finished up that I haven't had a chance to share yet. These are both done in 14c28n stainless. The 8" chef has some of my stabilized Oregon maple burl, and the 5" one has some of my stabilized Bastogne walnut with a nice feathery figure. I gave the walnut one a stonewashed finish on the blade, a first for a kitchen knife for me.
These are both .098 a the spine and ground to very thin edge.

Ben,
Very nice work and those woods are really attractive!
That 5" size is my fav.

 

[Steven Long]

Wow! Those are beautiful. The design on the 5" one is a home run.

Great handle job on the 8 incher!

 

[Garry Odgers]

Both excellent, I really like your kitchen knives. The big one would be my favorite in this selection.

Thanks very much guys!
The 5" is a great utility size chef for most everyday tasks, and has been very popular with my customers.
