Description

About this model: When Chris Reeve decided to make a chef's knife, you know it was not going to be a typical design. The combination the state of the art production methods pioneered in over 30 years of making cutlery and with a unique, functional take on design, add up to the Sikayo. Named for the Zulu word for "sharp", the blade of the Sikayo is made from premium CPM S35VN stainless steel and is ground on one side. The slight curve of the blade facilitates rocking for slicing vegetables and herbs. The full tang handle is covered with scales made from grooved Ultem 1000 with one side being slightly larger to fill the hand. Ultem 1000 is a unique plastic that is extremely durable and can withstand high temperatures. I stand out design that performs as well as it looks.

About CPM S35VN: CPM S35VN is stainless steel that is basically a product improved version of CPM S30V. Chris Reeve worked with Crucible steel to refine the alloy mixture. There is an addition of Niobium to the alloy which results in better edge retention and toughness as well as corrosion resistance when compared to CPM S30V.
