Two knives, one handle, six months of making. No two alike.
Price range: £285.00 through £645.00
Why choose this set
The Gyuto and the Agile Yeoman are the two knives we’d put in front of someone who wanted two knives to tackle almost everything. The Gyuto handles everything on the board – smoothly rocking through prep, long drawing slices, anything that needs blade length and a fluid motion. The Agile Yeoman covers everything else: in-hand work, carving a chicken, filleting a fish or anything that doesn’t need a chef’s knife but deserves a proper one. Between them there is very little they won’t do, and very little functional overlap, which is a good thing.

Gyuto: Blade 20.2cm | Overall 33cm | Depth 4.5cm | Weight 176g.
Agile Yeoman: Blade 14.6cm | Overall 27cm | Depth 3.2cm | Weight 86g.
The Story
We use a lot of epoxide polymer for all sorts of stuff. Every pour has an escess, and this we tip it into what we fondly call the ‘Mega Bucket’. Layer by layer, colour by colour, everything we’ve cast and made accumulating for up to six months until the bucket is full. When the last layer goes in, we decant, partition and nuke it to within an inch of its life under pressure and heat. What comes out is the STRATUS handle: delineated, compressed layers, each one slightly different from the last because the sequence is never repeated. It is the fordite of the knife world, cool to the touch, comfortable in the hand, and unlike anything else anyone makes. Once run VIII, this particular combination of colours will not exist again.
