DCI Online 2023 230 Integral Collaboration piece

Read through the whole description to get info on how to purchase this knife!

This piece is a result of an effort of many people.
It is made by me and Naohito Myojin from Japan and was initiated by Peter at Modern Cooking and JonJon at Bonsaiboys trading.
I have forged, heattreated and put a handle on it and Myojin has made the grind and polish.
This was made to put together Japanese and western makers and also to introduce more European and Swedish steels to the Japanese knifemaking community.
A very exiting project and time will tell what the future holds ;)

It is a forged integral from a 35x25mm Damasteel DS93x Dense twist pattern stainless steel

Balancepoint is at Isasmedjan makers mark
