DeadBeat Billionaire II - 8in Gyuto Chef Knife S35VN Stainless Steel

"DeadBeat Billionaire" 8" k-tip gyuto chef knife. The smooth modified Western handle on this knife is a take on my popular "Blood Money" model: red resin pouring over shredded cash. The super steel blade features a custom design in which a grinning sugar skull stares out. From the top of the head emerges the top half of a heart, with ventricles, arteries and the works (hence DeadBeat). The devil in this knife is all about the details - just like your quality cooking.

The blade is a full flat grind, and has a distal taper. It is ground thin at the edge, measuring between 0.25-0.30mm thin behind the cutting edge.⠀⠀

The blade is made from CPM S35VN hardened to 60 HRC. S35VN is the best stainless steel available for chef knife blades, combining high hardness and toughness. S35VN blades should be sharpened with a water stone, synthetic stone, or diamond. Do not use a honing steel on this blade. The edge angle is sharpened to 15 degrees and then stropped to a super sharp finish. The blade is 8” (203 mm) long, 2.08” (53 mm) tall, 0.1” (2.5 mm) thick at the spine, and 0.25-0.30mm thin behind the cutting edge. Total length of the knife is 13.19” (335 mm). 

The gyuto blade is made from S35VN high hardness stainless steel. Our handles are a hybrid style that makes them extremely comfortable to use, no matter your knife grip preference. An ambidextrous recess at the bolster area improves pinch grip comfort and stability. The full handle also provides plenty of space for a standard grip.
