Picking up an object of daily use, and redesigning it to find a perfect balance between modern design and everyday practicality.
The shape of kitchenware that we use today was developed through history to perform certain tasks, and they do excel at it. Modern designers don’t have many options to change the shape of a blade since in most cases it is simply the most efficient. The challenge I have faced was to create a design that would be original and did not compromise the performance. I have achieved that by creating a knife that is made of one piece of material instead of multiple parts. Carefully measuring the dimensions had allow me to make a blade that has perfect balance. Timeless technique of pattern welding, create unique pattern that enhances the flow of material and a very deep etch had helped to make a very comfortable grip on the handle.
Created with high-quality modern materials:
- - 15n20 carbon steel and 1095 spring steel forging pattern welded steel (Damascus steel)
- - edge of each blade, includes a layer of O1 tool steel to ensure a great cutting edge
- - Thermocycled blades, hardened and tempered for highest performance
