Teaser for here as well.

220x51. Deep etch, integral, low bevel, san mai gyuto. 52100 and wrought iron, desert ironwood burl scales.

Planning on posting it in bst tomorrow after testing it tonight for dinner prep.

Integral posted on BST.

Did dinner prep with it and some random quick brunoise and really liked how it preformed. Nice and thin bte, nice nail flex. Glides through produce nicely, but isn't flimsy.



And an update on my knife making, which I also posted in my bst thread -

Knife making has been my main focus the last few years and has mostly pulling me away from the 50 Best/3 Michelin Star scene, but I'm getting to the point of some planned long term life changes, which is going to leave me with a lot less time for knife making.

Moving forward, my production is going to be a lot lower than it has been (maybe a few a month, made in my free time) and I'll be focusing more on projects that I find the most interesting - bloomery steel and iron, twisted wrought iron, integral forging, bevel shaping, deep etches, etc.

Moved out of state and in the process of looking for a long term rental, hopefully with room for a small workshop on it. Hoping to get back up and running again with some new blades in the next month or two.

But for some in-progress knives, I had started a project with Atelier Tennen Toishi a few months ago. We came to the idea of using reclaimed kanna blades for some damascus cladding for a few knives.

He did a better write up than I did and posted some progress pictures as well -

Also, in non knife related news, the restaurant that I used to cook at (and cooked at their pop up last year) got awarded Number 1 in the world today by the World 50 Best Restaurants.

I think they are first restaurant in South America to make the number 1 spot too. It's well deserved, I've been following Central for a while now and the lyrics are consistently turning out very thoughtful and well executed dishes. Hopefully I'll make it down there to eat one day.
 
Extra bump on the twisted kanna damascus gyuto.

Probably the last blade to be available for the next 3-6 months until I get settled and get a new shop set up.

Available in 20 minutes on the ATT website.

Went home for a long weekend and had done a touch of knife work.

A few gyutos in the works, as well as some titanium offsets (listed in bst).

Finished up this mini gyuto. Deep etch twisted wrought iron clad 52100. Sappy desert ironwood handle with a wrought iron spacer. Really fun little gyuto.

Dropped it off at the post office today, along with a few kiris. Keep your eyes on ATT. 👀

Three kiris going live on ATT in 15 minutes, which is the last batch for at least until at least q2 of next year.

52100 and wrought iron. Rounded the edges a bit more and smoothed the ku finish, so they're a touch more comfortable in hand/during polishing.

Happy holidays, everyone!

These all got bought in under 20 seconds…which is faster than it takes to do a normal payout with Apple Pay….
 
I got some forge time in for the first time in a few months and managed to forge out some substantially larger nashiji kiridashis, longer san mai gyutos (think 260-280x56), as well as some titanium offset spatulas.

Some finished pictures and videos of them coming soon - (with the kiris and spatulas will be available on Sunday!)
