A very classy piece from Skye Eilers. A hidden tang, western style handle with some lovely curves and facettes, a Vtoku2 core clad in stainless steel and styled with a hammered texture, satin polished edge band and pitch-black forced patina. Skye does incredible work on his handles and this one is amazingly comfortable, and thoughtfully positioned in relation to the blade edge. The result, an incredible cutting action that is very satisfying.
Skye’s profiles and geometries feel surgical and nimble, these blades are incredible for the detail work that a professional would have produce during a busy service. By no means laser, but the low profile, pointed tips are maneuvered with ease and the edge geometry is a lovely thin and sharp convex perfect for slicing.
The rich dark brown of the African blackwood, classy, highly polished brass spacers paired with the contrasting textures, satin polished edge band and black patina of the blade all come together in what can only be described as beautiful. Another very nice piece from Skye Eilers, which leaves us hungry for more!
