Alaskan Forged Chef Knives - Full Build!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Woodworker meets Knife maker - Tyson at Carbon Peaks reached out to me about a year ago, he put the bug in my ear that I needed to make chaotic knife handles. This collaboration took 6 months start to finish, what a journey it has been to get here. To say his knives are stunning would be an understatement.
Chaotic stabilized knife handles, blocks and pen blanks are a new but limited product for me. A lot more to come in the distant future with that.
Chef knives are 7" and 10" hand forged San Mai Damascus with my Chaotic stabilized handles by

    About 24 years ago I was making jewelry. There was a guy who worked as a janitor. He would have these garbage barrels full of long pieces. Some were expensive since some crafters were making expensive jewelery boxes. I told him if he glues them together he could make panels. He began to make trucks, really nice things. I used to ask him to make some things for my shop. I'd bring him the wood. Many times he wouldn't take my money. He became a wood craftsman and started with a hand plane and glue. I used to bring him hand graved silver to wrap his cribbage boards.

I have 1 opinion on them from a professional chefs point of view/knife lover they are stunning the obly thing i think could cause an issue is the such depth/sharpness of angle between the handle and the back the blade could get uncomfortable to use. Again just my opinion though look great 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
