• KITCHEN KNIFE MAKING BLANK – This woodworking project kit includes a hidden tang knife blank ONLY. Customize your very own knife handle by using any type of wood or get creative with your choice of material. Give your Gyuto knife a unique personality by hand finishing all the parts. BONUS: Includes a handle end cap.
• ENGINEERED TO PERFECTION – Unparalleled design, Katsura knife blade blanks are made with a Japanese AUS-10 Core reinforced with 66 Layers of Damascus Steel, 60+ Rockwell hardness. With excellent edge retention, your cutting knife will stay razor sharp for years to come. Feel the strength and beauty of your unique knife in your hand.
• WOODWORKING PROJECT – Go ‘old school’ and put together your own handle and blade tang. Making knife handles is easier than you think, even if all you have is a sharp pocket knife and some scraps of softwood. Draw your dream knife handle on a piece of wood and carve it to the finished shape. No logo on the blade, because only the artist should write their name on their work.
• THE KNIFE OF A KITCHEN SAMURAI – Our culinary Gyuto knife has a razor-sharp edge and agile blade to make chopping, cutting and slicing much easier. Create your own ergonomic handle out of any material around the perfectly balanced hidden tang handle. Transform into a kitchen samurai with your new Japanese Gyuto knife.
