New custom kitchen knife!!!!!

[VUPDblue]

I commissioned INGOer "Nova512" to make me a nice, quality kitchen knife a few months ago. I wanted a slightly radiused blade so it could be rocked, and I also wanted a large handle to accommodate my large hands. And of course it had to be good steel and have durable handles. Today he presented me with this beauty! 154CM steel and black micarta handles. This thing is sharp enough to cut air, and heavy enough that any vegetable or protein in my kitchen will be dealt with easily. I can't wait to get to using it! Huge props to Rob!

I would have a very hard time not getting a kydex sheath made and carrying that sucker.

Exactly. I like that.

Looks like a good field dressing knife as well.

How thick is it? Standard kitchen knife thick? I like the handle, I can picture it with a santoku blade. Very tempting...

It’s a bit thicker than your average kitchen knife. I think he said it was 1/8” but don’t quote me on that.

 

[Cameramonkey]

That's sexy!

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

I do like it.
