Just finished this one up, it's a 240mm gyuto made from CPM-154 with a dyed maple burl/buffalo horn handle with nickel silver spacer and mosaic pin.

 

Here's a matching pair of Martell knives in CPM154 with dyed Oregon maple burl (from BurlSource) and buffalo horn wa oval handles.

The sujihiki is a 270mm, the petty is 160mm.

 

Beautiful set, Dave! no surprise though

 

Thanks Warren

 

The knives look great Dave!

 

Thanks Mark, it's easy to do this with good wood from you.

 

Not that easy Dave. Not like yours.

 

You're too kind Mike.

 

Outstanding work Dave. Just beautiful!!!

 

Thanks Randy but I'm just trying to keep up with you and I'm not......

 

Here's a custom 270mm gyuto in CPM-154.

The customer requested natural looking wood and that's what he got.

The handle is made from highly figured maple that's bright and super 3D in movement, some of the best I've seen. The spacer and ferrule are nickel silver, the ferrule has been soldered onto the blade for a clean look.

 

Curly Maple doesn't get the love it deserves around here!! That looks GREAT and that natural maple is stunning! Good work Dave!

 

Really nice Dave.

 

Thanks gents!

 

Now that is a very handsome knife! Wow!!
Understated elegance really packs a punch ... Nice one Dave
