10E2414: R Murphy Knives


Bar knife. $79.
  • Made from high carbon steel (1095), 
  • Blade is precision ground, hand-edged and hand-honed. By humans.
  • Blade is cryogenically treated. Sure it increases edge retention but just sounds baddass as well...
  • Full tang construction. Of course!
  • Triple brass riveted handle
  • Made in Massachusetts.

I love a good gift guide. Ton of options here from our neighbors R. Murphy. We visited them a while ago and it was the highlight of the year honestly. The shellfish knives are offered in wood or Murphy Green poly handles for a bit less. #stockingstuffer Unless noted, all knives made of carbon steel (see Julia Childs...). Owner Mark noted "They don’t stay shiny, but they do stay sharp!”

Clam (top) and oyster knives, $18 or $37.
