The Workerman KUT Ambrosia Maple Knife boasts a striking look that is due in large part to the pattern on the blade and texture of the handle. A folding blade, it melds practicality with style in order to appeal to individuals who appreciate products that focus on unique properties. In this case, the uniqueness owes itself almost entirely to the carbon steel Svörd blade that has been treated with a 'forced patina' that results in a zebra stripe-like pattern.
Forged by hand in New Zealand, the Workerman KUT Ambrosia Maple Knife may seem ornamental, but the brand writes that it is "perfect for the yard, kitchen [and] fancy parties to impress your friends" and "come[s] hair splitting sharp."
