Description: John Leitch's utility knives will feel as at home in a collection as they will used in the kitchen. This is a perfect size to be used as a paring knife for detail tasks in the kitchen or a smaller slicing knife -- it also makes a perfect executive desk knife.
The ATS-34 stainless steel blade was etched with a relief for his maker's mark. This results in a "damascene" pattern that has made his work well known. The stainless steel blade will have exceptional edge holding.
The fit between nickel silver bolsters and ivory micarta scales is excellent -- without a perceptible seam. The handle is completed with five pins. Excellent work throughout!
