Gyuto (Chef's Knife)
225mm ProCut +Wrought Iron San-Mai Gyuto
$50.00This 225mm ProCut blade will be my first available in this new and innovative steel. I’ve elected to utilize san-mai construction for my ProCut blades owing to the costs associated with acquiring it. ProCut is a brand new steel released by Pop’s Knife Supply and Larrin Thomas. You could think of ProCut as a steel with the toughness of 80CrV2, the nickel content of 15n20 and edge retention somewhere between 52100 and AEB-L.
This 225mm ProCut blade features a stone tuned geometry and a very fine 2500 grit finish that was finished with my own special polishing mix that results in a kasumi-like finish without the use of uchigumori
Please note that there is a small blemish in the handle where a chip was repaired during construction.
Blade Details
Blade: 224mmx51mm ProCut+ Wrought Iron (~64/65 hrc) Stone tuned bevels + 2500 grit hand finish + pseudo uchigumori/kasumi polish.
Neck: 17mmx18mm
Handle: Stabilized amboyna burl, oil finished, buffed and waxed
POB: 42mm from the handle
Spine: 3.29mm at the handle, 2.70mm at halfway, .65mm 1cm from the tip
Grind: full convex RH bias
Weight: 183g
Relieved choil and spine

240mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto
$50.00This 240mm ProCut blade will be my second available in this new and innovative steel. I’ve elected to utilize san-mai construction for my ProCut blades owing to the costs associated with acquiring it. ProCut is a brand new steel released by Pop’s Knife Supply and Larrin Thomas. You could think of ProCut as a steel with the toughness of 80CrV2, the nickel content of 15n20 and edge retention somewhere between 52100 and AEB-L.
This 240mm ProCut blade features a stone tuned geometry and a very fine 2500 grit finish that was finished with my own special polishing mix that results in a kasumi-like finish without the use of uchigumori. This finish highlights the core steel while creating a smokey haze where some minor carbon migration has occurred and leaves subtle intimations of the endogenous banding within the cladding steel. Interestingly enough it even highlighted a couple of inclusions within the cladding steel.
Blade Details
Blade: 240mmx51mm ProCut+ Low carbon steel (~64/65 hrc) Stone tuned bevels + 2500 grit hand finish + pseudo uchigumori/kasumi polish.
Neck: 17mmx19mm

$50.00This 190mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto represents a large step forward in my polishing abilities. In this blade the various hues of carbon diffusion are visible at the weld interface while the cladding itself carries a natural mural of alloy banding patterns that exist within the steel itself.

Gyuto (Chef's Knife)
200mm MagnaCut Gyuto
$522.00A 200mm MagnaCut gyuto
This 200mm MagnaCut gyuto features a very thin blade with a full convex grind that serves to optimize food release. Colloquially known as “lasers” very thin chef’s knives have a somewhat niche following of diehard adherents who believe “laser” geometry to be superior to all others, and if you’ve ever felt one glide through a potato on only its own weight you’d find it hard to disagree. Food release is of course somewhat impeded in comparison to more workhorse style blades, but the full convex geometry is intended to mitigate that as far as possible.
Blade Details
Blade: 200mmx50mm MagnaCut (~63hrc) belt finish
Neck: 18mmx18mm
Handle: Bolivian Rosewood and Walnut, oil finished and waxed
POB: 20mm from the handle
Spine: 2.12mm at the handle, 1.96mm at halfway, .61mm 1cm from the tip
Grind: full convex 50/50 bias

Gyuto (Chef's Knife)
240mm A2 Gyuto Chef Knife (SKD12)
$621.00A 240mm A2 Gyuto Chef Knife
This 240mm A2 Gyuto Chef Knife utilizes a profile which is a variation on my Sabatier styled pattern with a a slightly lower tip, and a slightly longer flat. It’s also a bit heavier than is typical for me owing to a bit less distal taper than I usually grind. Nail flexing, full convex and hand finished in (seemingly) everyone’s favourite semi stainless. This knife should be a delight.

Gyuto (Chef's Knife)
225mm Stainless Damascus Gyuto
$1,010.00A 225mm (9 Inch) Stainless Damascus Gyuto Chef Knife
This blade represents a real milestone in my development and work. This is an inhouse made stainless damascus gyuto.
Stainless damascus is quite difficult to make compared to carbon steel damascus and I have spent MANY dollars and hours trying and sort of succeeding. This blade is the result of tuning the process to eliminate the ~50% failure/material loss I was experiencing previously.
It’s quite light, but not handle heavy—I chose that amber coloured cocobolo handle specifically for its light weight to maintain forward balance. I’ve also done test cuts and I have to say I’m impressed. Not only does the blade have less drag than an etched carbon steel damascus knife, but despite its thinness the food release is quite impressive. Full convex grinds are really hard to beat in that regard.
Ease of sharpening: it’s basically as easy to sharpen as AEB-L– which people love.
Blade Details
- Blade: 227mmx56mm High Contrast Stainless Damascus (AEB-L+304) (62-63 hrc) 600 grit hand finish + light etch
- Neck: 18mmx18mm
- Handle: Cocobolo and walnut, oil finished and waxed
- POB: 34mm from the handle
- Spine: 1.92mm at the handle, 1.66mm at halfway, .44mm 1cm from the tip
- Grind: full convex 50/50 ground
- Weight: 123g
- Relieved choil and spine
