Welcome Stefan

Great to have you on board.

 

Welcome to the Kitchen Knife Fora Stefan!

 

Good to see this new section up!

 

Welcome

 

Thank you for the welcome, everyone. I was hesitating at first to sign up as a vendor because I am laying low a bit right now, trying to make a dent into my order list, and it is a little unclear how long I will continue doing this at all. But I thought it would be nice to be part of the community here as a vendor also, and have a place to address questions more freely. For those who don't know me: I work in the health field, teach at a university, and - my third job so to speak - occasionally dabble in making handles for Japanese wa-handled knives. I need to re-read the rules about linking to my own website, but that is under construction right now anyway...

So, I will occasionally show something here - when I have something to show, and I will give updates on where I am in my handle work and maybe even where I will be geographically in 6 months, as soon as I find out myself...

Aloha,

Stefan

 

Aloha Stefan, we are glad to have you

 

Hi Stefan. Can't wait to see your handles

 

No forum is complete without the one and only handle meister.

k.

 

I have said it once and I will say it again, no collection is complete without a Stefan handle.

 

FTFY!

 

Glad to see you here! Just slipped a handle from you on a knife a couple days ago. May even have a pic or two laying around here.

 

Cool, I definitely would like to see that one

Thanks everyone!

Stefan

 

This is now attached to a Doi 300mm takohiki.





Thank you again Stefan!

 

That 's a great looking knife, glad you found the handle worthy of it! Thanks for the pics,

Stefan

 

Is that copper ?

 

Yep, triple copper with black fiber spacer, desert ironwood ferrule, two-tone amboyna handle.

Stefan

 

Wow it looks great, I love copper, specially colour treated copper that looks like it has age on it, do you ever work in those ? (if you dont know what I mean, i mean copper that shows greens blues and the like I know they do it chemically to make all kinds of kitchen stuff like counter tops and range hoods)

 

holy s*** taylor that is sexy! I think it tops mine!


Stefan did you make this handle? I think you did but I am not 100%

-Brad

 

Very nice one there, Brad. There were so many, but I think this is not one of mine, the endcap looks a bit longer than I would make it. Would have to see it from the butt side. Wish I had taken pictures of all of them... Oh, and Taylor deserves all the credit for the handle design, I just put the pieces together like he told me to

Stefan

 

I have never seen this, beautiful! Must have been a pain to shape, copper gets crazy hot fast.
