"Starry Nife II" 8in (203mm) k-tip gyuto chef knife. Starry Nife reflects that scene of a small town on the water's edge. Swirling tones in burnt orange and blues dominate the piece, painting the stars, the sky, the town, and more. The hypnotic brushstrokes of nature painted this design, each stroke taking decades to etch into the dyed maple burl handle. My signature wavy handle texture not only adds enhanced functionality but brings the overall aesthetic together by adding a mesmerizing layer of visual texture to this practical piece of art.
The blade is a full flat grind, and has a distal taper. It is ground thin at the edge, measuring between 0.25-0.30mm thin behind the cutting edge.⠀⠀
The blade is made from CPM S35VN hardened to 60 HRC. S35VN is the best stainless steel available for chef knife blades, combining high hardness and toughness. S35VN blades should be sharpened with a water stone, synthetic stone, or diamond. Do not use a honing steel on this blade. The edge angle is sharpened to 15 degrees and then stropped to a super sharp finish. The blade is 8” (203 mm) long, 2.08” (53 mm) tall, 0.1” (2.5 mm) thick at the spine, and 0.25-0.30mm thin behind the cutting edge. Total length of the knife is 13.19” (335 mm).
The gyuto blade is made from S35VN high hardness stainless steel. Our handles are a hybrid style that makes them 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.
