CUSTOM CHEF KNIVES
Unlike most knives found in kitchen stores, which are at best, as uninspiring as they are dull, Blackbird knives are decidedly less ordinary. Using traditional metalsmithing techniques and an eye for design, we individually hand forge and fit all our knives one at a time. No mass produced mediocrity here. Possessing a combination of beauty and practicality, every Blackbird Blade Company knife is tough as nails, a beauty to behold, and ground to a razor sharp precision. Look sharp. Be sharp.
If you don't find a knife below that fits your style, we take custom orders as well. Connect here and find out how you can design a custom chef knife to your desired specifications.
Karasu
8 INCH CHEF KNIFE
Blade Length: 8 inches
Overall Length: 13 inches
Steel: 1095 High Carbon with Parkerized finish*
A contemporary, Japanese style Gyuto, this all black Karasu, or Raven blade, is an inspired addition to any cook's kitchen. Equal parts beauty and precision, our signature blade is complimented by a Buffalo horn handle and nickel silver pins.
​
* Parkerizing is a surface etch which gives the blade it's black color. To prevent scratching of the etch, always hand wash and place in it's sheath when not in use.
