My popular New Generation series of chef's knives. My experience working as a professional chef shines through in this chef's knife. My design is effective and feels great in the hand. The blade has a strong distal taper for balance and excellent edge geometry for perfect cutting. The steel, 154 CM is considered by many to be the great choices for chef's knives. It is extremely hard and takes on a superior razor edge and holds it. A beautiful stabilized curly koa handle makes this one definitely at home in your modern kitchen.
