Chef Knife – The Diakonos – “The Masters Servant”

The Chef Knife – Diakonos – which in greek translation, means “The Masters Servant” was created to be the one “go to” kitchen knife.

Over the years I have been commissioned by several professional chefs to make them their one perfectly ergonomic work horse chef knife that they could use in their restaurants. What I have done here is take a little from each of those designs to make the most ergonomic and perfectly balanced and somewhat hefty chef knife. What better to call this work of art, and one main go to tool in the kitchen for the Master Chef in you, than the Masters Servant.

• The Diakonos is:

  • 12 inches Overall – 7 inch Blade
    1/8 inches thick 1095 Hand Forged – Hammered – Polished Blade
  • 1095 High Carbon Steel
  • 58 RHC (Rockwell Hardness)
  • High Convex Grind
  • “Ergonomically Perfect” – So I’m told by those who have the title
