This knife has a blade length of approximately +- 80 mm and a total length of approximately +- 190 mm with the handle. All these knives are handmade by us in our workshop, and variations in size and color may occur. We strive to make them as similar as possible, but each knife is unique!
The weight of the knife is approximately 40 grams.
The height at the heel is approximately 25 mm.
The knife features a stainless forged blade made of Swedish Sandvik 14c28n steel. 14c28n is a really good steel that holds its edge excellently, becomes very sharp, and is easy to sharpen. The hardness of the steel is approximately 63 HRC.
The knife has a concave grind that provides excellent food release and is pleasant and thin behind the edge, allowing the knife to cut effortlessly. The blade has a fine, sharp belt grind finish.
Despite the steel being stainless, make sure to dry it thoroughly after use and only hand wash.
You can choose between three different handle materials: old black oak, Swedish elm root, and locally harvested curly birch.

Crafts from scratch
We manufacture our knives from the ground up in our forge, often with different types of steel and metals for specific appearance and properties. This process is called welling, where the materials are merged under high pressure. We usually use Swedish steel for its high quality and durability.
Razor blade edge
When the knife blade is infected, format and tempered, the grinding of the blade's grinding phases, which determines the geometry of the blade. Kitchen knives are ground thinner than hunting knives, which need stronger primary eggs. The grinding is performed by hand and is followed by final polish with stones, sandpaper and polishes. The blade is then sharpened by hand in Japanese bench stones for best sharpness.
