That's really a nice piece, with the usual Martell understated elegance.
I have a chunk of that blue burl that I've been saving for a special occasion. Didn't know it would look like that!

Glad to hear it is still working out. What is the lowest exterior temp you have had to deal with?

With some exceptions I believe that we've been in the 20's & 30's since the heater was installed and it's not running all the time nor set at even the mid range so it's doing way better than expected.
 
who's the lucky new owner? I'm interested in hearing about the shape of the handle
 
I am the lucky owner of this. The handle is extremely comfortable. Fits all the pressure points on my hand perfect. I put it through heavy prep in a commercial kitchen and not one hiccup or any type of fatigue. Dave did a amazing job on this knife and I would highly recommend his handles and knives.
 
thanks. i was curious about the handle. my only other experience with this shape is on a shun
