SOLD Cris Anderson 200mm chef in W2 (yet another unicorn)

[icanhaschzbrgr]

The Knife in all it's glory


200mm custom chef made by Cris Anderson. This knife started his Extra Heavy line. Thick spine, agressive taper, thin tip and very good food release.

Mizu honyaki W2 steel hardened to a crazy ~65 HRC. Easy to sharpen, holds edge pretty well and not chippy.

• 200mm length.
• 50mm height at the heel.
• Weight 170g
• Balance point is 1cm from the handle.

Sharpened twice. It's been mostly a drawer queen that I pulled when wanted to compare its cutting ability with other rivals. And speaking of cutting and food release — it's one of the best. On par with Kato and other customs.

Leather sheath with tight fit.


W2 (don't confuse with White #2) takes a really nice blue/red/yellow patina


Bog Oak with >hundred years old wrough iron insert.


A glimpse of pretty wild hamon and maker's mark



Thick spine, thin behind the edge.
50mm spine near the handle. 20mm spine mid blade. 0.6mm spine 1cm from the tip.


Cris offers a touchup for the new customer for the price of shipping. And option to convert handle to his newer style (or change handle completely), but that's extra.

Upon request I can clean knife from patina and/or sharpen it proior to shipping.

Asking 800$ shipped. I believe you can't beat it at this price level.

Ping me in PM or Instagram @icanhaschzbrgr for any questions.

Gorgeous knife. Great price. If it was 220mm+, I'd be all over this. GLWS.

I think a 220+mm Anderson at this price, Everybody would be all over it!

This knife probably acts more like a 210 mm or even 215 mm when you consider how the choil is radiused. If you use in a pinch grip 100% of the time, that missing 1-1.5 cm at the heel isn't so vital. Great looking knife, GLWS!
