MICHAEL ZIEBA

Once in a great while I have time to walk around a Knife Show to see what catches my eye.  Even more rare is when I find myself drawn back to a New Makers Table a second or third time. Yet that is exactly what happened at the recent NYCKS I attended.  

I introduced myself to Michael Zieba and we began discussing his work.  As he described his extensive artistic background and his knife making techniques, I took the time to examine his knives VERY closely.  Upon inspection it was easy to see the passion and fine detailed dedication that he put into each of his creations ~ whether it was High End Custom Chef’s knives, exquisite Hand Carved Knife Display Boxes or Hard Use Cutting Tools for Emergency Personnel.  I understood Michael’s philosophy, recognized his talent and felt compelled to share his unique creations with my customers.

Direct from the Maker  

If you want to be amazed by both the fine Craftsmanship and the performance of a blade in your Kitchen, This is your Knife!

This is a remarkable Custom Chef’s knife with a definite European Flare but made Entirely in the US.  This knife would serve the Cook for any type of Cutting or Slicing on all types of Meat, Fresh Vegetables or General Kitchen Prep.  

This knife has every conveivable Custom upgrade that Michael offers.  The blade is 52100 Carbon Steel with a protective, Abstract Custom Patina and an approximate Rc of 61.  Michael even gave this blade an 24k Gold filling in his Maker’s Mark etch. 

The blade thickness starts at slightly more than 1/8″ and Michael expertly Hand Grinds the entire blade to have a Full Height Flat Grind for maximum cutting efficiency.

This leaves the Polished Edge Razor Sharp and makes slicing effortless!  A Distal Taper allows for extremely fine cutting ability when necessary. 

Never one to take shortcuts, Michael started on the handle with a Single piece of Black G-10 which he Milled out to accept the Custom Contoured Spalted Maple overlays!  Ergonomically shaped to provide an extremely comfortable grip.    

The blade measures a Whopping 2″ Wide at the Heel and is extremely well balanced. Many Professional Chef’s insist on Carbon Steel for their Blades.  52100 is a Tough, High Carbon Steel that will hold an edge extremely well and gives world class performance. 

 This knife comes complete in a Padded Zipper Case.  

This knife will appeal to anyone who has a desire for a versatile Hand Made Chef’s knife.

This knife comes with a FREE Custom Made Key Chain.  Every kitchen could use more Bacon, so Michael used the Lost Wax method to create this Bronze Hand Cast example from an actual piece of Bacon. A $75 value 

~ Hand Crafted with precision from the finest materials ~
