Twisted Wa Handle for Japanese Chef Knives, Padauk, Blue Resin and Zebrano
A Japanese wa handle with a twisted, rope-like surface, shaped and ready to fit. The hardest part of a wa handle is the tang slot. Cut true, sized right, deep enough. That is already done.
Deep red padauk as the body, a blue resin band and a zebrano front section. Padauk needs no dye to be that colour and it is dimensionally stable, so the handle stays true. The twist runs the full length and the handle tapers from front to back to fill the hand.
Made for hidden tang chef blades. The slot is 2.7 mm wide, the thickness of our N690 Japanese chef blade blanks.
Each piece is selected, laminated with resin, then shaped. It arrives needing only final sanding and polishing. The shape is right, the surface is up to you.
