In his latest feat of engineering, metalsmithing, and artistic excellence, Australia's Saul Kokkinos-Kennedy delivers the next iteration in his evolution of groundbreaking, all steel, hollow-handle chef knives, with Parallax. Leaving no stone unturned, this technological marvel brings balance, beauty, and uncompromising utility to the cutting board with 255mm / 10" of razor sharp, laser-thin edge in 14c28n stainless steel hardened to 62 HRC for a cutting experience like no other. Polished and convex just above the secondary bevel, most of the material receives a unique, brushed finish designed to stand up to the rigors of daily meal prep. An enviable full-distal taper along the blade's spine, one which slims progressively and steadily from 3mm, to 1.8mm at the midpoint, to less than 1mm an inch from the extremely fine tip, provides versatility and aids cutting performance back to front, whether chopping root vegetables at the heel or slicing shallots with precision at the opposite end. Through careful shaping and heat treatment, a welcomed touch of lateral flexibility is present in the final inches. From the three-plane faceted blade spine, to the perfectly sculpted choil, and of course the exquisite, symmetrical handle and the extraordinary comfort and control if offers, no detail is overlooked in the fit, finish, and overall design of this one-of-a-kind culinary tool built by one of the best in the world.
