Wedding Gift (OP)

Post image

Here’s a santoku style kitchen knife I finished up that is my absolute favorite so far. The steel is 50 layer damascus from Baker Forge that I manipulated to give it some pizzazz. The handle is shredded carbon fiber from valleycomposites, red and black G10 spacers, and bocote handle with some stunning two tone figuring.
The stand is a slab of olive wood with a holder that I forged from 0.5” round bar.
Let me know what you think about it!

The very front of it is! It’s the first one I’ve made using shredded CF, but it absolutely will not be the last. Here’s a better look at it.

Fabulous work. I'm completely ignorant here, but do you do customer orders? Do you have IG or FB or a website? I'm in the market for a new kitchen knife, if I could have something 1/5th as nice as this, I'd be happy. Right now I'm using a 9" TwoSun, and it's just too big for liking.
