Standard Models
These are all flat-ground blades of carbon steel. 100% hand-crafted. Unless specified, the blades are differentially heat treated and triple tempered. This results in a hard, durable edge and basically a spring tempered spine. These are great, using knives that possess excellent edge retention and toughness. All blades have a hand-rubbed satin finish. It does look great—you may want to get two—one for use and one for show! This type of steel may rust, so you must take care to wipe the knife down after using or washing and make sure it always has a thin coat of oil on it at all times. This can be cooking oil, household oil—any type of oil really. Over time the blade may develop a natural “patina” as it ages and comes in contact with various materials. This in no way will affect the performance of your knife. I do have various blade coatings available which will almost eliminate the tarnishing of these blades.
