Couldn’t resist picking this one up. 250 catcheside. Handle feels very nice, surprisingly even in a pinch grip the design isn’t wasted. Was worried about that. Can’t wait to test it’s food* release 😍View attachment 192283View attachment 192284View attachment 192285View attachment 192286

Great looking knife! I haven’t read much about Skyes work on the forums here but I’m curious. Would you mind sharing some impressions?
in my opinion Skye makes the most complete knife I have owned. Fit and finish is flawless, little things like the core steel being perfectly centered and etched along the spine and choil. The rounding and polishing of everything is as good as I have seen. You can see from the choil shot its thin and has a nice amount of convexity. I really love this knife. In fairness it started with my own drawing and was exactly to my specs. so I should be happy. In terms of performance it is in the top 1 or 2 in every category of any knife I have owned. I was just messaging Skye on Instagram and saying that I felt bad because I like to give feedback to makers in areas I think they could improve on but I dont have any improvements with this. I have owned other knives that have done certain things a little better, for example I think Alex Horn knives go through dense produce slightly better or I have owned a couple knives with slightly better food release but this is the best overall knife I have used.

I don't use my CCK too often, but it did immediately become my favorite tool for processing garlic. After doing the garlic this evening I discovered it might be the perfect tool for lining up a bunch of andouille sausage links and reducing them to little rounds.

I had this Felippi gyuto returned to me after being shipped internationally. Unfortunately the knife got wet on the return trip and needed some TLC. I’m still very much a beginner with stones but I had a good time trying to refinish this knife. The stone/nagura slurry forced a patina on the wrought. Yellow but I thought it was cool so I left it. Hopefully the buyer still wants this.
