245mm W2 Honyaki XH Gyuto in Honduran Rosewood and Mokume

  1. This knife was actually kind of an odd one. It had originally been a project for Mike Tran, and was already in process. Mike has switched his knife to something a little more unique though, and so this one came available. I happened to have a customer who was on my 'Fast Track' list and so was next in line. He grabbed it up, and here we are!

    This one came out pretty clean, I think. Hope the new owner has a good impression of it in hand.

    That wood...hmmmmm. Cris, does rosewood darken over time like ironwood?
     
  9. It kind of depends on the piece Matt. I have some Thailand rosewood that hasn't changed color in four years. But other pieces of rosewood I have have darkened noticeably (though not excessively) in just a few weeks after polishing a face to see the figure.

    Looks great, Cris! Somehow you made the mokume look very understated and classy. Well done!
