225mm CPM Magnacut Gyuto - snakewood bolster with african ebony handle

I will start saying that this is what i believe to be one of the most beautiful handles i have ever done.

Snakewood on its own is the most expensive wood in the planet, as well one of the rarest in such quality grade. 

Then, i added that exotic Trustone Arizona jade spacer, that adds an interesting contrast given the fact that african ebony is jet black.

Ebony is a quite traditional, elegant and exotic wood specie. It comes from a tree that takes near a century to grow enough for harvesting, as well being very popular in high-end projects due it was initially used in the most luxurious pianos ever made (the classic black tiles). 

CPM Magnacut in my opinion is the perfect match to such poetry in form of handle. It will offer TONS of edge retention, especially given the zero grind i did. 

Both spine and choil are perfectly rounded, which will give you absolute comfort when using.

This knife is nimble, solid and extremely well balanced. Its balance is flawlessly set in the pinch grip area, which will give you a feeling of it bonding to your hand as a natural part of your body. 

I built this knife to be a heirloom, functional artistic tool. Something you will use for prepare your best meals but also to keep for your life. 

By being CPM Magnacut steel, im sure this knife will outlast us.
