A workhorse and must-have knife, designed to perform well at many different kitchen tasks, rather than excelling at any one in particular. Our chef knives are center-weighted, balance thinness and precision with durability and strength, and have both Japanese and Western appeal. The ultimate all-purpose knife and our most popular. If you only have one knife in your kitchen, whether you are a professional or home cook, make it a chef. The blade’s gentle curve along the edge from heel to tip serves a variety of uses and cutting techniques, so you can rock and chop, push and pull, or slice and dice.
The 10" Chef knife is best for large scale projects and those who prefer using a longer blade.
Showcasing the beauty found in harsh, rugged conditions, the Olneya collection spotlights the dense, heavy wood of the Desert Ironwood tree.
Olneya features sleek and evocative blade profiles made from Nitro-V stainless steel, known for its long-lasting edge retention and high corrosion resistance. From this twisting tree, we've given the handles a lean and smooth shape, with a flat taper toward the center grip-point of the knife, and a broad oval base complemented by a carbon fiber inlay pin and G10 liner. The glittering chatoyance of rich and deep golden tones in the wood develops from natural stresses the tree is exposed to in its extreme (arid) and torrid environment.
With respect for the austere and mysterious wilderness where the Desert Ironwood tree grows, an Ironwood branch silhouette is engraved on the backside of the blade to illustrate Olneya's untamed elegance.
Made by Town Cutler, made in Reno NV.
