The 'Velin' 8.5" Chef - Jute Micarta
Crafted to Perform. Built to Last a Lifetime.
This handmade 8.5" 'Velin' chef knife is the perfect fusion of form and function, precision-ground from high-performance N690 stainless steel for long-lasting edge retention and corrosion resistance. At the heart of its design is a contoured handle made from Jute Micarta, paired with a Paper Micarta bolster with a thumb relief for the pinch grip - adding both structural integrity and a smooth transition between blade and grip. The result is exceptional balance, comfort, and control in every cut. Durable, elegant, and engineered for daily performance, this is more than a knife—it’s a lifetime companion for cooks who demand both beauty and reliability at the cutting edge.
