Marks lost on this Cuisine Massive / Nogent style 9.75" chef knife with fine ground carbon steel blade, aluminum ferrule ring (tube, not braised) and 'ebonized' beech handle. 

Blade is still fairly full, has been sharpened in but not needing a thinning yet, tip veers a little off to the left a little when pointed away from user, not too much, knife has seen some rust, leaving some fine pits, otherwise it is ready to get back to work.

9.75" cutting edge, 14.75" overall 6.4 oz 

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and towel dried soon after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
