Every one of our knives is numbered and unique. This NORA knife, number #500, has been handled with a bold striped pattern composed of black G10 as the base with smaller stripes of quilted maple flanked by black and yellow. The wood has been stabilized for durability..

 

Our take on the classic Chef knife. This is an extremely versatile knife that is a jack-of-all-trades worker and one of the single most important knives in a kitchen. Blade length on this knife comes in at 8.5 inches.  Long enough for most kitchen tasks but still nimble in hand.

Our Chef knife design can easily accommodate both a pinch grip and a full hold.  It is a good choice for those with larger hands or those who prefer a full hold on the handle.  Our design is also excellent for those who like a rocking motion while cutting.

Every one of our knives is numbered and unique. This NORA knife, number #1102, is a hybrid mix of wood and resin.  The wood is a beautiful, stabilized figured walnut and we cut and cast a bubbly pattern of white resin circles in the wood.  Its a playful design and we like the classic color combo.  

Wood stabilization is an added feature that we offer with our knives.  Wood that is stabilized has been injected with a clear acrylic resin under a vacuum process. Stabilization helps to minimize, if not eliminate, any cracking, warping, shrinkage and/or expanding of the material. Stabilized wood will not absorb water and is generally impervious to oils.  The process helps to ensure your knife has a long lifespan in the kitchen. 

The blade on this knife is composed of a high carbon 52100 steel.  52100 steel is a great all around choice for carbon steel as it is easily sharpened and the fine grain structure produces a very sharp edge. It is also an economical alternative to some of the more expensive Japanese carbon steels while offering similar benefits and a more hardy steel.  HRC hardness on this knife is at a solid 62. This blade has been etched to help prevent rust.  The etch leaves the blade slightly darker with a somewhat rustic look.  Each blade will form its own markings and patina.  This is normal and by design.

As this is a carbon steel, the blade will form a slight patina over time.  This is normal and is actually the mark of a beautifully used knife.  Please note, however, that a carbon knife does require more maintenance than its stainless steel counterpart, mainly that it must be washed or wiped clean immediately after each use to prevent unwanted rust.
