*NOTE: This item is marked as a ‘second’ because it was previously purchased by a customer. After inspecting the blade, testing the blades metallurgy by shaving metal from a bandsaw platen, and repair / repolishing the handle, Murray Carter has determined that this blade is flawless. The hardness of this blade is very high and it is a great representation of the metallurgy Murray hopes to achieve in every blade he makes by hand. Because all of Carter Cutlery blades have a forged distal taper (thicker in the middle, more thin towards the tip), the blade thickness given is dependent on what part of the blade is measured. On Kitchen knives we measure the blade thickness at or around the “Carter” stamp. On Neck knives and Outdoor knives we measure just in front of handle.
