This knife was made by Tobias as a showpiece during a course. The focus of the work is on the performance of the chef's knife. With its convex bevel and strong back, this heavy bunka is certainly not for friends of thin laser geometries. However, the thinly ground cutting edge and the core layer made of ApexUltra convince with its fine sharpness and edge retention despite the more robust geometry in use.
