Firstly, let’s discuss this new profile.
Aside from knife making Antoine Kniamen of Adonis Forged Art is a huge fan of motorcycles and their design. This design features his new “StraightLeg” heel design which is inspired by the straight leg motorcycle frame developed by Harley Davidson in 1936 to support their Knucklehead models. The key feature of the frame was two straight tubes at the front of the frame. This inspired the new “StraightLeg" profile, which aside from the straight heel also features soft graceful lines and a slightly more curved spine and tip. The design still feels in keeping with Antoine’s signature style and features a lovely ergonomic action on the cutting board.
Apex Ultra clad in stainless steel make up this 3-layer (SanMai) construction, a beautiful, high performance, cutting tool. Precision forged, the black etched core is nicely centred between the layers of stainless steel. Satin polished bevels give the knife a bright, striking silver division between black etched core and kurouchi,
A fun additional touch on the blade is the quench line, which runs directly through the makers mark :)
An incredible piece of oxidised Cocobolo for the handle with remarkable colours and figure is paired with torch patinated stainless steel. The cool blue and purple hues of the patinated stainless steel prominently contrast with the deep fiery red Cocobolo.
Overall this new profile is a very welcome addition to the Adonis Forged Arts portfolio and such a cool composition.
