This Santoku was built based on one I made in the spring. The first one sold the day after I completed it, so thought it would be worth remaking. I just love the combo of the Damascus San Mai supplied by KWB Culinary Tools and this spalted guava supplied by Henry Lee. The handle material mimics the Damascus with the kind of bubbly pattern. This size knife I perfect for your average home chef and is the knife made most on my courses. This is with the last of this handle material so I don’t expect to revisit this combo. This one is available on the website. Thanks

This combo is a firm favourite of mine. Cu mai blade, Snakewood, buffalo horn & copper pins. What’s not to love?! This is the first full size kitchen knife made in this combo, it definitely won’t be the last! This one sold at The Sharp Show but if you’d like one just message me. I am going to be taking a some commissions going forward. If you’d like something immediately I have some work available on my website. Thanks 🙏

I did a batch of these smaller knives made from Damasteel and Fatcarbon materials with a variety of patterns. They are fairly simple in design, as I wanted to keep the materials as the focus. This one has Björkmans Twist pattern by Damasteel and carbon camo by Fatcarbon materials. This one has a nice contract between the blade and handle. I love the confidence these materials give you to use these knives without the need to be precious about them. Such maintainance free materials come at a cost, but to me it’s worth it for the longevity these materials have. This one is available on my website, along with a few others in these uber premium materials.

Here is an experiment in doing a Hamon on a 150mm petty. Partly as I wanted to have a go at making a couple of Tantos. Thought it would be good to try the differential hardening using clay on a kitchen knife first. This one has been etched and polished up to 2000 grit, which to my eye looks great. I then matched it up with a teak burl handle, which is always beautiful. This one is now up on the website.

This is the fanciest Bunka so far. Made using the beautiful Damascus Cu Mai from KWB Culinary Tools The handle is a piece of desert ironwood burl, one of the nicest woods around for a knife handle in my opinion. This stuff is really dense and stable making it ideal in the kitchen. Although quite dark, there is plenty of figure in this piece with a range of tones. Check out the other side too. This was built for The Sharp Show and sold to a chef who had bought 2 knives from me last year. Great to know it’ll be put to good use. Although this one is gone, I’ve added a bunch of new knives to the website!

I guess this one would have to be called purple haze. Purple heart and a hazy Hamon. This is my first successful attempt at a Hamon. The blade was made using 26C3 (spicy white) as this steel reacts well during the differential hardening. Basically clay was added to the top half of the blade to insulate in during the quench. This leaves the top half softer and with some polishing & etching to reveal the contrast especially along the barrier between hard cutting edge & softer spine. The purple heart wood revealed its purple colouring after exposure to UV. This one has an extra central pin going through the tang. Would be interested to hear people’s opinions on this build. Will be up on the website by the end of the week. Anyway back to work, got a list of 20 knives I’m trying to work my way through!

This is the first full sized kitchen knife I’ve made using wrought iron clad San Mai from . I absolutely love the look of the wrought iron! I think this yellow stabilised maple burl compliments it nicely. The wrought iron is definitely prone to rust so tbh I wouldn’t be working with this stuff without Iron guard from KWB prior to a good coat of knife wax. Having spent years working primarily with stainless steel it’s taken me a while to figure out ways to create knives with these lovely materials with less hassle to keep looking good. Massive thanks to for the great steel and a proper way of preventing corrosion without the need for constant reapplying. Highly recommend his products to any other knife makers out there. His steel has really helped me up my game with the quality of what I am able to produce.

This Bunka was made using some of my favourite materials. This piece of Damascus San Mai from has an Apex Ultra core steel for a super wear resistant edge! The pattern on this steel speaks for itself. The Mun Ebony from although dark has some incredibly unique figure to it. My usual hidden tang frame handle construction is made with a G10 central layer and a buffalo horn bolster with 2mm black carbon fibre pins that are barely visible against the Mun Ebony. The faceted handle adds to the aesthetic, yet doesn’t detract from the comfort of the handle. I’m all about small iterations of improvement and there is still a relationship to my earlier work, though the progression should be obvious.

This is my first Gyuto made from the beautiful Dark Mai supplied by This piece of Lamtoro Burl was a nice contrast to the blackened blade. I do love the black & yellow combo! Facets on the handle add to the aesthetic, yet designed to be comfortable in any grip. This one is now up on the website along with the others from this recent batch. Built as a workhorse for professional and home chefs at nearly 8” long this blade will perform a variety of tasks.

Good things often come in small packages. I believe the petty really underestimated by most amateur and professional chefs. The big knives are fun and more often what people lust after. I do however believe that it’s hard to do everything with something larger and a good petty is the perfect accompaniment. This one is simple in shape and design, but with the beautiful dark mai from and some lovely curly sycamore from the materials speak for themselves.
