Hand forged chef's knife

This chef's knife is made using traditional forging techniques and modern materials. The form of the carbon steel blade is inspired by the traditional Japanese-style gyuto knife (similar to western chef's knives) and the handle is crafted out of orange padauk wood. The wood and metal are held together by two brass rivets. Some forging marks are intentionally left on the blade. This knife is intended as a multipurpose kitchen knife.
