Black Oil Petty Chef 150mm

With his striking ‘special black’ finish including ‘oil spill’ coloring of purples, reds, and turquoise, the result of a careful and purposeful etch and controlledoxidation process, this 150mm / 5.9″ petty chef knife from Korben Bloomfield is crafted to use daily, and look good doing it. Thin, hard, and extremely sharp at the 80crv2 carbon steel edge, the 48mm tall blade rocks nicely on the board with ample knuckle clearance to play the role of a larger knife, while offering an aggressive, needle-like tip at the other end for detail work and efficient slicing, all in a package ideal for tight workplaces and anywhere a larger blade simply isn’t necessary. Made in house by this artist behind KWB Knives, the blade formula delivers five total layers including a vein of pure nickel. To control this handsome cutting tool, Korben has sculpted a handle from tiple-dyed maple wood, given it a polished black G10 ferrule, and secured it with a domed, polished, stainless-steel pin that allows for removal, maintenance, and cleaning, all with an heirloom fit designed to last generations.
