Damascus Chef Knife "Marbre blanc"
Forged in San Mai Damascus clad + 135Cr3 at the edge.
Deep Etch finish on the top of the blade (no kurouchi)
Stone shaped and stone polished bevels, finished on a Japanese natural stone Nakayama Suita.
Blade is 235mm long, 55mm wide, 4mm to 0.3mm thick on spine before the tip, 225 grams.
The handle is western shape, made from local walnut and brass. Pined tang at the bottom of the handle.
A chef knife with a damascus pattern a little different than usual, or in the same path as the one you could see on eating tools. It's a diagonal pattern. I just forge a damascus pattern as usual and then flatten the square piece forging right in the ridge to flatten the diagonal. I can then have both random and those straight lines in the same pattern.
Deep etch finish is some of my best to date maybe. I change few steps and could get much more details and contrast that way. Almost fooling that it could be kurouchi, but it's not. It's just very contrasty.
For the handle, always that little game about finding a piece of wood that match the damascus pattern, and seems that lovely walnut complete the mission !
