High Carbon steel knives are like the cast iron skillets of cutlery, their durability and sharpness are unrivaled by the supermarket variants or "surgical stainless" blades. They require less sharpening and will stay very sharp even straight out of the box for a very long time. These blades are forged from high carbon spring steel, oil quenched for tempering and hardness, then sharpened to a convex beveled edge similar to the typical "Serbian Chef's Knife" but lighter and easier to handle for general cooking.
The shape of this blade is very versatile, the tip being so sharp allows you to de-bone or butcher pretty easily. If you are looking for a quick dice just use the heft of the knife near the bolster. The indentation on the back side of the blade is very comfortable for gripping for long periods of time and even cutting through tough materials without putting much wear on you hands. Possibly my favorite feature of this knife is the curved edge, if you're cooking with a lot of herbs or doing a lot of fine dicing this allows for a very easy "rocking" motion to finely chop safely without the blade every leaving the cutting surface.
Be aware that all knives are unique and custom made. The one that you receive may be a bit diferent. Personalized etching available order. For etching please contact me. This knife has about 18 cm (7.09 inch) long in the blade by 9 cm (3.55 inch) wide in the largest point. The handle has about 12 cm (4.72 inch) long- But they are hand and costum made, so I can adjust to the sizes that comes closer to your wishes (well, nothing too apart of the original).

Care for this blade is simple, wash with a towel under soap and water. Do not use the dishwasher and make sure to store dry. This blade is NOT stainless steel, if you leave it wet or dirty it can develop a patina of sorts. It doesn't kill the blade, but it will show. Before you store it for a long time you should spread some mineral or vegetal oil on the blade.
All knives are made by comission, so there will be slight differences, becoming unique and special just for you.
