The Forged Blade

We’ve wanted to make a chef knife for years, but the blade had to feel as unique as the handle.

That’s what led us to Wanchana Kanrangsee, one of the most original bladesmiths we’ve ever come across.

Each blade is a 210mm / 8.3" gyuto, hand-forged from Copper San Mai with a 52100 high-carbon steel core, hardened to around 65 HRC.

Etched to create a stark contrast between the steel and copper. Sharp, functional, and made for real kitchen prep.

The Live edge Handle

Each handle is made from stabilized burl and hand-poured resin in a continuous live edge design. Each handle is also engraved with its matching serial number.

Every handle is one-of-one. The hidden tang handle is pinned for strength, with the balance point just in front of the pinch grip for a natural feel.

The end piece is made from the same Copper San Mai steel and copper material as the blade, tying the whole knife together.

The Custom Box

Each knife comes in a custom walnut box made in-house at Carved. The box is built to fit the knife perfectly and engraved with the matching serial number. Magnets hold the case closed and allow it to double as a display stand for the knife.
