Why High-Carbon Steel?

High-carbon steel takes a sharper edge than stainless, resharpens easily, and develops a rich patina that enhances both character and corrosion resistance over time. This is the working chef's choice — a no-nonsense blade built to perform session after session.

Handle & Finish

The natural wood handle is shaped for a powerful, secure grip during heavy chopping. Full tang construction runs the steel through the entire handle for maximum strength and balance under demanding use.

Knife Care & Maintenance

• Hand wash and dry immediately after use — never soak or dishwash
• Apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to the blade periodically
• Condition the wood handle with food-safe wood oil occasionally
• Sharpen with a 1000–3000 grit whetstone as needed
