The Japanese take on the chef's knife, thin, precise and fast on the board. The blade is a 52100 carbon core with bright nickel shim lines, a san mai built to take and hold a razor edge. The handle is a traditional Japanese Wa style in carbon fibre, light, tough and grippy.

From a small workshop on the NSW coast
Made by hand. Made to last.
Every Iron Gate knife is built in our workshop in Anna Bay, NSW the same town it's been for years. We're a small team. We make a small number of knives each week. We do it properly.
The handles are real materials deer antler, abalone shell, blackwood, paua. The sheaths are kydex, fitted to the blade. The lifetime backing is real too.
- Andrew Founder · Iron Gate Knives
HANDMADE IN ANNA BAY
Anna Bay is where the bush meets the ocean, and that balance defines how we work. Our knives are made by hand in a small coastal workshop, shaped slowly with patience and respect for the materials. Just honest tools built by those who hunt and fish.
