Every day chef - Ironwood 2 -

The best part about a forged carbon steel chefs knife is it really is a type of art you can connect with and be a part of. It truly becomes an extension of you. As you use this knife, preparing meals at home or out in the wild, a beautiful and unique patina will begin to develop. At first you might worry you did something wrong when it starts to discolour, but there’s nothing to worry about. That’s the knife becoming your own. The patina not only makes a beautiful pattern from all the different prep work, but it’s also a protective layer between the steel and its environment   Soon a mark where your thumb and pointer finger grip the spine just over the top of the bolster will appear. It’s really neat to see yourself reflected in the knife itself. It really tells a story as time goes on. And the blade is so hard, thin, and sharp with perfect geometry from spine to edge, you’ll be a little sad when you get to the end of your meal prep and there’s nothing left to cut. 
I hope you enjoy using this piece as much as I did in crafting it.
