This is a 230mm pattern welded gyuto, the steels used are 1095/15n20. The pattern used for this knife is an intricate feather pattern that I’ve named Camphoria. This is a unique pattern with a bit more 15n20 in the mix to give it a brighter overall appearance. I have paired the blade with a figured block of Camphor which has nice deep curls in the figure. The camphor wood has retained some of its natural smell, it is not overbearing in any way but reminiscent of what it once was. This knife has a compound S-grind, which has a hollow along the middle of the blade that aids with food release. The grind on this knife would be my typical of my normal lighter midweight grind.
