Description: Tom Buckner, out of Olympia, Washington, makes amazing hunting and culinary knives. He has a tremendous fit and finish and well-tested designs. This steak knife set was entirely hand-built by Tom - from the immaculate knives to the stunning display box. This set is sure to draw attention at the dinner table while company is over.
This set includes four matching steak knives. The blades are American-made Crucible CPM-S35VN stainless steel with a hand rubbed satin finish. This fine-grained powdered metallurgical steel is tough, chip-resistant, and can be sharpened to a razor edge. S35VN maintains high corrosion resistance, making it perfect when working in wetter conditions. With a combination of good toughness and high corrosion resistance, it is an excellent steel for steak knives. Buckner's touchmark is on the left side of each blade.
The handles are stabilized curly koa set on a full tang for strength and durability. Koa (Acacia koa) is a beautiful exotic wood that only grows on the Hawaiian islands. With its tight curl, it is one of the most desirable woods in the world. White fiber liners will help the natural wood adjust to humidity and temperature changes. A central mosaic pin in each knife adds a touch of class. The front of the handles are sealed with a stainless steel bolster. Like all knives, these should not be put in the dishwasher.
A custom wooden display box, also hand built by Tom Buckner is included. The stunning box combines spalted curly maple with purpleheart wood accents.
Excellent work throughout!
