Gourmand 8" Damascus Steel Chef Knife

A gourmand is an individual who finds great pleasure in good food and drink. We believe this kind of person is also someone who enjoys the finer things in life. This is why we named this exquisite chef knife Gourmand. Fine food, fine wine, fine knife!

The Gourmand 8" Damascus Steel Chef Knife is our newest chef knife design and is a culmination of years making chef knives. We have found that 8 inches is about the perfect length for a chef knife. Light and easy enough to handle but long enough to handle virtually every culinary task. A deep, 2" blade gives you plenty of room to use a pinch grip without your fingers coming near the cutting surface. And if a handle grip is more to your liking, the deep knife means you won't be hitting your knuckles against the counter. Speaking of the handle, the ergonomics make this knife easy to use with no hand fatigue. Plus, made of a smooth G10, you won't have to worry about the handles shrinking or expanding. Whether you enjoy eating food or cooking it, this beautiful chef knife will make it more enjoyable.
