Dalstrong 8" Chef Knife - Titanium Nitride Coated Steel

Dalstrong 8" Chef Knife - Titanium Nitride Coated Steel

• FOR THE ALL-BLACK KITCHEN WHERE EVERY TOOL MATCHES THE AESTHETIC: The Shadow Black series is Dalstrong's entry into the dark kitchen format — black TiN-coated blade, black G10 handle, matte everything. If you're building an all-black countertop setup and don't want to pay Scorpion ELITE prices for every knife, the Shadow Black delivers the look at the entry of the Dalstrong line.
• FOR DAILY COOKING WHERE YOU WANT A BLADE THAT LOOKS SERIOUS AND PERFORMS RELIABLY: 7CR17MOV-X vacuum-treated steel is a capable daily-use kitchen steel — it takes a working edge, resists rust, and handles the full daily prep sequence without issue. It's softer than AUS-10V (sharper more easily, dulls slightly faster) and sharpens back in minutes on the Hornet sharpener (B0CZ2TJ6NV).
• FOR THE COOK ENTERING THE DALSTRONG LINE AT THE DARK AESTHETIC LEVEL: The Shadow Black is the starting point — if you love the aesthetic and want to step up the steel, the Scorpion ELITE (B091BGRMHT) runs AUS-12V at 66+ HRC in the same dark format. Start here, cook with it, and step up when you're ready. The Shadow Black gives you the look and functional performance of a Dalstrong build at the entry tier.
• FULL-TANG CONSTRUCTION, NOT A STAMPED BLADE: Full-tang 7CR17MOV-X from heel to pommel — the same structural commitment as the higher-tier Dalstrong lines. The TiN coating on the blade face adds corrosion resistance and surface hardness to the steel underneath. G10 handle is moisture-resistant and triple-riveted.
• CUSTOMER SUPPORT, PERFECTFIT SHEATH, GIFT-READY: Ships with a protective sheath and Dalstrong's customer support — the all-black chef knife gift for the cook who's building a dark kitchen.
