Description: Acre Forge is a community of passionate, expert bladesmiths based in Portland, Oregon. From one-of-a-kind Signature knives to production knives designed collaboratively by their makers, they are committed to creating gorgeous, high-quality kitchen knives that chefs and home cooks alike can treasure for life. The Macrum chef's knife is Acre Forge's first stock knife which is made in the United States.
This high performance chef's knife is a perfect choice as a primary knife in the kitchen. Whether slicing, chopping, mincing, or dicing, this comfortable knife will do it all. The gentle arc of the cutting edge is perfect for a rocking chopping motion with plenty of finger clearance over a cutting board. At 7-1/4 inches, it is lightweight and easy to maneuver. This knife is perfect for those that prefer a slightly shorter knife.
The blade is flat ground, distal tapered AEB-L stainless steel. AEB-L is ultra-high performance -- combining the convenience of stainless steel with the ability to take an acute edge and hold it (a characteristic usually only found in carbon steels). AEB-L steel was designed for razors, which need corrosion resistance, high hardness, and very acute edges. Once you try a knife that is made with AEB-L, you'll immediately understand why it is coveted by knife enthusiasts, knifemakers, and professional chefs. The resulting blade has an extremely keen, long-lasting edge. The blade is beautifully thin for effortless slicing. The spine and choil are nicely rounded for comfort.
Handle scales made from blue and natural Richlite. They are set on a full tang for. Richlite is a very durable material and will hold up to even the most rigorous demands of the kitchen. The chamfered scales feel great in your hand. Like other knives, this knife should not be put in the dishwasher.
Excellent work throughout!
