Bread Knife

This bread knife features a San Mai (laminated) blade made with a VG-10 core steel and stainless Damascus pattern cladding. The blade steel was produced in Japan  by Takefu. The VG-10 is a high performance steel found commonly in Japanese cutlery. It performs similarly to Damasteel from Sweden which relies on RWL-34, it is also similar to American made CPM-154, by Crucible Industries, Inc.

The blade features a high polished, so the pattern is very faint, but you can easily see the core steel at the edge. The handle is crafted from locally harvested maple burl and dyed spalted Maple from a tree in Charlottesville, VA. It includes a slice of white Corian for aesthetics.
