Gyuto 220mm SanMai 135Cr3 & Wrought Iron

Beautifully light weight, nimble and with classic tapered geometry. This first piece from Karl Broch Jacobsen is an impressive performer. A lovely gentle radius at the edge makes for a comfortable and smooth action on the cutting board. Convex ground the knife features thin beautiful stone finished bevels and a razor-sharp edge.

The blade is forged in house laminated SanMai steel, 135Cr3 clad in wrought iron. Brute de forge, satin polished bevels, and a light contrast etch. It’s a classic look.  The handle is a rokkaku hanmaru shape in Perl wood, with G10 spacers and museum fit black horn bolster. It’s a subtle and tasteful look and it sits comfortably in the hand.

At the age of 18 this young craftsman is turning out quality that some seasoned veterans would envy. Beautifully, shaped and finished handle, gapless fit and finish and lovely smooth spine and choil. Very impressive work from this young artisan craftsman.
