How are they made?
The Living Coral Blade is a full tang knife with a tapered tang and a distal taper on the blade.
​
The steel is 1095 High Carbon with a beautiful hamon the blade.
The handles are made with unique resin coloured handles and white G10 liners. Refined has been redefined.
The handles are held together with solid stainless pins that have been textured to match the textured stainless bolsters.
​
As knife makers we seek to push the boundaries of design while making beautiful, functional pieces. We test new ideas, marry concepts and reinterpret traditional knife design in a contemporary context.
In so doing we create new relationships between new and old.
To celebrate the 5th anniversary of Cut Throat Knives, we decided to pay homage to Japanese culinary knives.
Inspired by yet untethered from tradition, with an added pinch of Australiana.
​
The Cut Throat Knives Culinary Samurai range consists of our take on Japanese culinary knives, made with 52100 High Carbon Steel with a textured knapped finish. The Handles are made using either Tasmanian Huon Pine or Japanese Elm Burl and can be ordered scorched or unscorched. All Knives come with Wooden Sayas.
​
These are a timed limited edition and are only available to order until the end of May through our online store.
