At 9.25” this wootz chef knife is on the larger end of the spectrum, but is still light and maneuverable enough for delicate tasks. The blade also sports a very active “auto-hamon” that is difficult to capture in the photographs but quite evident in person. The bolster is a combination of Commercial Bronze and my own Nickel/Copper mokume, and the handle is an amazing piece of two-tone curly koa. The wootz formula used in this blade is a close match to the historical wootz of India, having an extremely low alloy level combined with carbon of roughly 1.6%.
