Russia gave Trump the presidency and Trump is using his position as president to give Russia the sovereign country of Ukraine. It's a corrupt and disgusting deal that betrays America, democracy, and decency.

Japanese Yakitori demands that the whole bird be broken down into 10 distinct, precise cuts including both meat and offal cuts. Dating back to the early Edo period, the Honesuki is the ultimate refinement of a tool designed to that purpose. SOLD Alma Knife Co 🧶 🍽️ 🔪🔪🔪 #culinarysky

I’m really pleased with the way this one turned out. Commissioned as a Wedding Gift the handle features materials representing two home states of the soon-to-be couple. The Maple harvested from Wisconsin is combined with the unique Oklahoma Redbud. Alma Knife Co 🍽️ 🔪🔪🔪 🧶 #culinarysky

Thank you 🙏 They’re meant to be used everyday though.

These two photos illustrate something really important to me as a knife maker I’ve visited 25-30 Bay Area restaurant kitchens and I’ve not shook two line-cooks hands that are the same size I’ve not seen two with the exact same grip Why would I make only 1 shape of handle? Alma Knife Co 🧶 🍽️ 🔪🔪🔪

I just finished this exiting Gyuto / Nakiri pair featuring one of my favorite handle material combinations, Bloodwood and Ebony. The blades are both Nashiji finish but of different steel. 52100 Carbon steel on the Gyuto and 26c3 on the Nakiri. Alma Knife Co 🧶 🍽️ 🔪🔪🔪 #culinarysky

Fresh out of the shop this morning is this Nakiri. The handle is a fascinating material, Hemp. The product of a zero waste manufacturing plant, it’s as sustainable as it is unique and beautiful. It adorns a Nakiri in Nashiji finish 26c3 Carbon Steel. SOLD Alma Knife Co 🧶 🍽️ 🔪🔪🔪 #culinarysky
