Hi Mike,

I appreciate the chance to make this set for you. I think it turned out really well and should serve your son for many years.

I used Nitro V stainless steel, though like all good steel it will still rust if left uncared for. The blades are full flat grinds with hand honed edges and a satin hand rubbed finish. They are hardened and tempered to RC 62.

The handles are burlap burgundy micarta with stainless steel corby bolts, so they should take a beating.

The blades are 6.25, 7.25 and 9 inches. A good lineup.

Please let me know how they work out.

I tried to keep cost close to what we discussed, though materials have gone up somewhat. I hope you will find the following prices to be reasonable.

9 inch chef - 550

7.25 inch meat and poultry- 525

6.25 inch petty chef- 475

1550 total

I am happy to arrange a pick up if you prefer. Don’t forget to choose that option at checkout.

I am actually heading to my mom’s in Mount Vernon this weekend, so I will be in your area if you want to meet.

Thank you!
