Hand-forged in fire with X70Cr17MoV stainless steel, the blades are engraved with a design to look like a mountain range. And just like those majestic peaks, the Nomad Knife series is strong, stable, and perfectly balanced. Representing where water meets earth, the handles are made from a fusion of mountain burl wood and deep sea blue epoxy resin and finished with the Nomad Series logo. Feel as the air enters the slipstream as the knives glide along the chopping board, making slicing and dicing a breeze.
