250mm Wa Gyuto - "Copper" Poly Acrylic - CPM154
Price - $495
Made from CPM154 powdered stainless steel to have great edge retention, and ease of sharpening.
Food separation will be good, primarily as a result of the convex grind, and also assisted by a forward balance where weight is retained in the upper section of the blade as much as possible.
The spine, although nicely tapered, retains strength and resists flex yet the tip is thinly ground for making proper cuts as required.
The wa style handle is made from a poly acrylic material. I don't like working with this material much, as it's messy, yet I LOVE the results! This handle is described as having a copper swirl pattern for the main section along with a black pearl ferrule & end cap.
The pairing of a stainless steel blade with a poly acrylic handle makes for a low maintenance worry free package.
*Please see close up pictures for details.
Note - this knife is ground very nicely, maybe the nicest I've done that is closest to my vision of what I want to provide. I'm certain that someone is going to put a smile on their face when they use this knife for the first time. :wink:
