Hi Marc:
I’ve done several knives which I’ve bought from Woodcraft: the 3-1/2" Damascus Zhen paring knife; the 8" Zhen Damascus chef’s knife and the Sarge 3-1/4" Liner-lock folder. All turned out very nicely, using Honduran Rosewood without a finish (sanded and polished). The handles on the Zhen knives seemed really small, but are very comfortable to use. The chef’s knife is probably the most enjoyable to use of our collection of kitchen knives.
I also have a black ceramic Santoku from Woodcraft, but never got around to finishing it. Maybe sometime before I turn eighty. That’s close enough to give me the willies.
