Two custom kitchen knives

This one was designed for Caleb Meyer, owner of Caleb Meyer Studios in Philadelphia (he carries a few of my knives for sale—thanks).  He had been asking for a chef's or kitchen knife and we designed it together.  The blade is made from 1095/15N20 wave pattern damascus.  Overall length is 11 1/2” with a blade length of 6 3/4”.  Handle is a presentation grade Desert Ironwood with mosaic pins.

I liked the style so much that I made another for my youngest daughter and her new husband in L.A.  It is basically the same style and size.  The metal is a 1084/15N20 firestorm pattern damascus and handle is a black linen micarta spacers with overlying stabilized Bubinga scales and black linen micarta pins.  Really has a good look, I think.  I hope they enjoy it and use it happily together for many years to come.
