Description: Visiting Mastersmiths Kevin and Heather Harvey during my trips to South Africa is always a highlight of my trip.
Mastersmith Kevin Harvey began this elegant chef's utiility knife by forging his own damascus to shape. By forging the damascus from carbon steels, Harvey ensures a keen, long lasting edge.
This integral chef's knife is multipurpose and very handy. This integral chef's knife is a perfect choice for chopping and slicing, with just enough height for finger clearance, and is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
Showing his mastery in the forge, Kevin forged the entire knife from a single billet of damascus. Creating a fully integral knife in a custom environment is tremendously difficult. A distal taper to the blade provides optimal balance.
Exceptional work throughout!
