Large Damascus Chef
Large Damascus Chef
If you've been looking for a substantial chef/kitchen knife, this is it! This integral bolstered kitchen knife features a beautiful twist variation damascus & a sculpted ironwood handle. It weighs in at 13.7 oz (390g), 14.5" in overall length, & 8.25" cutting edge.
This was a collaborative project between myself and Ira Houseweart. Ira forged the damascus and forged the knife to shape. I did the final shaping/bevels, handle work, and final assembly and finish of the knife.
It was a pleasure to work with Ira on this build and to create a one of a kind kitchen knife together. This is a great addition to any kitchen looking for a large, robust knife.
It comes with a soft storage zipper case.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
This product is carbon steel and is prone to rusting. It is recommended to oil or wax regularly and keep dry to prevent rust. I use wicked wax on my personal kitchen knives and highly recommend it. You can add a tin of it to your order here. Hand wash only, DO NOT wash in dishwasher. DO NOT use scotch-bright, scrub daddy, or any other abrasive sponges when washing as these will damage the surface finish. Carbon steel knives will patina depending on the care and food they come in contact with. That's the joy of owning a carbon steel kitchen knife, use it and let that beautiful patina develop! A knife is designed to cut soft material only and may become damaged if used for something other such as prying (not even avocado pits), cutting bone, etc.
