    225mm ProCut +Wrought Iron San-Mai Gyuto

    $50.00

    This 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.

    240mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto

    $50.00

    This 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.

    190mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto With Banding

    $50.00

    This 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.

    250mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto

    $50.00

    A 250mm ProCut san mai gyuto

    I’ve been sitting on this one for a while and finally have it done. This 250mm ProCut gyuto is similar to a shorter blade I put out in February of this year  (posted HERE) and features the same kind of complex grind geometry and stonework.

     

    • Blade: 250mmx57mm ProCut/mild san-mai (64/65hrc) -stone set bevels + 2500 grit hand finish + etch and polish
    • Neck: 19mmx19mm
    • Handle: Wenge mono, oil finished and waxed
    • POB: 66mm from the handle
    • Spine: 3.94mm at the handle, 3.25mm at halfway, .78mm 1cm from the tip
    • Grind: full convex zero grind
    • Weight: 252g
    • Relieved choil and spine
    • Edge: .10mm@1mm, .23mm @2mm, 1.65mm at the shinogi measured at the midpoint,

    As you can see the banding isn’t quite as prominent in this blade despite using the ame cladding material. I suspect this is due to the higher austenitizing temperature I used for ProCut vs the SheffCut in the last one. Nonetheless it has a distinct pattern in the cladding that I only wish I could highlight more.

    *The cladding does indeed get close to the edge but at no point touches it

    Any US Tariffs will be prepaid by myself in full.
