A more exquisite bread knife is not often witnessed. Australian damascus artist and ABS Master Bladesmith Jackson Rumble has forged a 267mm blade from his stunning interpretation o f feather patterned steel to created a one-of-a-kind tool for the home and working kitchen alike. Razor-sharp serrations span the length of the thin, lightweight blade, sans the final inch nearing the tip in order to provide the versatility afforded by a short stretch of traditional, straight edge. For the baker's cutting board, the pasty shop's counter, or a home cook's workspace with no shortage of uses for serrations, the remarkable, high-contrast metallic artwork that courses through this object in which nickel-rich carbon alloys retain a bright sheen atop a background of darkly etched tool steel, is both inspiring and invigorating. For comfort and control, whether slicing sourdough, quartering a baguette sandwich, or readying bagels for a schmear, Jackson finishes the build with a simple, elegant handle of ancient bog oak fitted with a polished, stainless steel ring, all sculpted into a classic, octagonal wa form.
