Merry Mandalas - 10in (254mm) Damascus Gyuto - Raindrop - Smooth Handle

"Merry Mandala" 10in (254mm) k-tip damascus gyuto chef knife. The raindrop damascus blade is mated to a festive handle made from stabilized maple with a red and green mandala resin inlay. The inlay goes deep into the handle, and will not wear away. Look closely at the detail in the handles. The intricacy and thoroughness of these patterns, both natural and man-made, will truly astound. Includes the sleek walnut saya shown.

The blade is a modern take on a classic Japanese knife. The gyuto inspired blade is made from VG-10 steel core clad with layers of stainless for durability (and it looks awesome). The folded layers of stainless are what give the blade it's unique appearance and protects the hard inner core of the knife.

The handle is a hybrid style that makes it extremely comfortable to use, no matter your knife grip preference. An ambidextrous recess at the bolster area improves pinch grip comfort and stability. The full handle also provides plenty of space for a standard grip.
