This 6-inch, Japenese inspired, Chef’s Knife is perfect for cutting smaller vegetables, fruit, and boneless meat. The blade is large enough for chopping and small enough to provide the flexibility chef’s need. The blade is a forged welded Tri-Steel San Mai with a recycled high carbon lawmower blade as the core and a jacket of low carbon mild steel. The handle has curly ash (the lighter wood), a copper spacer, and curly walnut (the darker wood) with a hidden tang. Every Walker Hussey knife comes with a warranty for the life of the knifemaker.
