Very nice Dave.... are those full tang blades and if so how do you fix the wooden handles. Are any of them for sale?

G'day OzzieAu thanks and they are not full tang (hidden tang) is what they are and being Kitchen knives they are just a nice fit and glued with 2 part Arildite the strongest one you can get.

They are not going to get knocked around like forged in fire testing so not much need to put pins through the handle to secure it

I will/might be in the future selling the odd one, just send enquire via the messages if your interested

cheers dave

Beautiful work Dave.

Thanks Dave,
This stainless steel Santoku kitchen knife has served me well for over 20 years. I picked it up from a guy who makes and sells knives at a country craft fair.

But I would love to compliment it with a Gyuto style knife, perhaps something like this....

I finished this one this morning, it's a smaller Kitchen/Chefs knife, blade length is 125mm (5").

I darkened the front piece of the handle wood upto the copper spacer.

All finished with Bees Wax and Baby Oil 50/50 mix and warmed up so it flows and then polish off the excess.

Go Mai construction, Blade is 1095 core, and then 0.1mm Nickel sheet each side and then Mild Steel cladding.

Handle is Sandalwood and Copper spacer, any cracks or holes in the wood were filled with Superglue



cheers dave
