Available is a stunning 50mm carving knife made from stunning Elm burr
Blade: The blade has been designed by Ash & Axe and handforged across the pond in the USA by an experienced bladesmith from 01 tool steel and is 50mm long with a scandi grind
Handle: The handle is crafted from a stunning piece of elm burr from Welsh countryside with additional 5000 year old bog oak from the Lincolnshire fens and English yew from Suffolk. I havnt made an elm burr knife for a while, partly because the wood is very dense and extra time is needed to make one but the end result is always stunning.
The bog oak has been dug up from the Lincolnshire fens and carefully air dried then kiln dried before being quarter sawn to give a beautifully contrasting pattern.
Radio carbon dating has shown these ancient giant oaks to be around 3300BC.
Leather: The knife is being sold as knife only but a handstitched leather blade slip or sheath is available as an option
To help keep your handle in good condition the knife includes a tin of Ash & Axe organic Cambridge beeswax and tung oil/ Linseed oil wax.
