Blade length; 135mm (5 1/4 inches ) overall length, 275 mm width of blade at heel; 51mm .Thickness of spine 3.2mm near handle tapering to on average 2mm for most of the spine , the oval handle is 130mm long x 20mm wide x 27mm tall, weight; 167 gm Balance; good . the blade has a concave S -Grind to help with food release. Being such a thin blade its designed for up and down cutting of softer materials so please go easy with sideways pressure such as may occur when breaking open a pumpkin.

Please read the care instruction page before purchase. Being made from old saws this is carbon steel ( AKA black steel) , not stainless steel so will tarnish and develop a patina with time and may rust if not cared for. Thank you.

All knives come with complementary tin of DBK Knife Wax , a blend of and food grade paraffin oil and pure bees wax , to help keep the handle and steel in good condition.
