This Special one off features a re-curve or sway spine and black Richlite bolster for style points. Also featuring the alternate New Hampshire stamping. The sway back blade profile I’ve been featuring a lot is an effort to produce a very versatile edge profile curve that is smooth and progressive without looking or feeling bulky. It breaks a trend which I see too often of 3 inches of straight knife with a little curve at the end. I’ve always believed a good carving knife should have a subtle curve all the way down the edge and this particular interpretation does that beautifully. The grind is a flat Scandinavian so that the edge angle is held true at 27 degrees from tip to tail (I bet you didn’t know that all jig hollow ground knifes descend in edge angle to the tip, and the more curve the more the angle changes!)

The blade steel is a well balanced 80CrV2 carbon steel, a formula often referred to as Swedish saw steel. It can be sharpened with any typical abrasives
