700-Layer Walnut Petty 146mm

Forged by hand from house-made 700-layer random pattern carbon damascus steel, this integral bolster petty chef knife is one you won’t want to set down.The striking damascus, forged using traditional methods by this Massachusetts’s based artist who specializes in historical reproductions using techniques from centuries past, is etched and polished to reveal a beautiful chatoyance full of character. Wide and strong out of the sculpted bolster, the blade’s gently rounded spine tapers steadily toward a fine, pointed tip perfect for all manner of detail work and slicing. At 45mm tall, the heel provides ample toughness and height for chopping versatility. Thin and razor-sharp along the 146mm / 5.7″ edge, the blade delivers wonderful geometry and balance in a nimble, lightweight package. For comfort and control in a slim, hand-carved profile, Emiliano selects beautiful walnut wood to pair with moose antler and rings of black G10 to form a grip that is unobtrusive and comfortable.
