Monosteel Mahogany Butcher 114mm

Dressed in handsome, natural mahogany, this Don Carlos Andrade butcher’s knife in his Alsace styling is built for uncompromising performance. Modeled after the French tools of centuries past, Don’s Alsace knives all feature this comfortable, recognizable, hand-filling handle design, especially suited to hard-use knives like this short, tough butcher’s boning knife where a solid grip is crucial for use while trimming and separating meat from bone. For this build, the formally trained chef behind its creation selected CTS-XHP stainless steel, a high carbon, powder metallurgy alloy with high corrosion resistance. Sharp and strong at the edge below his usually superb convex geometry, Don gives the bevels a silky, hand-sanded satin finish below a rounded and polished spine that tapers steadily from handle to tip. A handcrafted cloth-covered saya is included.
