Octad Damascus Steel 9 Inch Chef Knife with Ebony Handle

In Asian tradition, the number eight is considered the luckiest of numbers, and is associated with prosperity and wealth. In some regional dialects, the word for eight and fortune are also similar. While our greatest interest is in good food, and the chefs that prepare it, we can also admit to being a little bit superstitious. You see, we recognize that a proper knife can quickly become a lucky amulet for any chef worth their salt. 

Speaking of salt, we discovered that world renowned chef, Ranveer Brar, believes in dropping a pinch of it on the floor before cooking to bring him good luck. All of this makes us think there must be some truth to the ancient philosophy of luck and good fortune. For that reason, we are proud to present the Octad VG-10 Damascus Steel 9 Inch Chef Knife with an ergonomic octagonal handle made from classic, black Ebony wood. This is a knife that every home chef would be lucky to have in their kitchen knife collection. 

Our Octad design is inspired by the philosophy of good fortune, which Aristotle defines as the wisdom to make good choices. With an impressive, 9 inch long, gold-standard, stainless steel blade and practical design, we couldn’t think of a better choice in kitchen tools than our Damascus steel chef knife. This knife has a solid steel core forged from 67 layers of  Damascus steel. High carbon content in this metal makes for a durable blade with an incredibly sharp edge that’s ideal for chopping, slicing and cutting with authority. The vg10 Damascus chef knife is designed with the gold standard of Japanese stainless steel. We finished this knife with a unique octagon-shaped handle that keeps the blade from rolling in your hands, especially when your hands are wet and you are chopping quickly. With a great chef knife at your behest, good fortune is never hard to find.
