Interesting thanks - will have a think and let you know.
Yeah was thinking it will be a 'normal' length chef's knife, so maybe that answers a lot - I guess still material choice is worth some thought, then other stuff (handle, exposed blade finish) are partly aesthetic
Pretty sure a mate just did one of these based on the location.
Let me know if you want me to ask them any questions.
I'd probably go for a 6" or 7" chef knife of some sort.
