Portable Rolin Knives 175mm Small Chef 52100 Kurouchi Eucalyptus Buy Now [ELybp9wD]

>Hand forged mono steel gyuto made from 52100 carbon steel. Features a wide flat grind with a medium-thin edge and strong distal taper that allows for a precise and smooth cutting action with a substantial feel. The octagonal handle is made from stabilized eucalyptus heartwood with a micarta ferrule. 

We have developed a great relationship with Nick and this knife is a result of many conversations about being able to bring high-quality hand forging to a wider crowd. Nick has found an efficient way to meet his standards while maintaining his wildly impressive attention to detail. 

To add to the San Francisco origins, we wanted to feature a handle material that folks in the Bay Area are very familiar with, the non-native and rampant Eucalyptus. It's a more difficult wood to work with but it's circular grain patterning and deep red hue has made for a handsome handle.

While it may not be as dazzling as some of his other pieces, the top-notch heat treatment, forging, grinding and strong distal tapering that we have grown accustomed to is all here.
