The Bonneville — 5" Nakiri in AEB-L | Figured Walnut

$365.00

Named for the flattest place on earth. Built with presence.

The Bonneville Salt Flats are a place where things get stripped down to what matters. No curves, no distractions, no excess. Just flat ground, forward motion, and what you're made of. This knife was named for that place — and built with the same philosophy.

This is the second Bonneville to leave the shop — and the more substantial of the two. Where its sibling was ground thin and light for the cook who wants a laser, this one was built with a Western-influenced spine at 0.087" — more presence in the hand, more confidence through denser produce, more durability for the cook who wants a nakiri profile without the fragility of an ultra-thin grind.

At 6.02 oz and 5-1/2" of blade it sits in a sweet spot between nimble and authoritative. Light enough to move quickly through a pile of vegetables. Substantial enough to feel like a serious tool in a serious kitchen.

The blade is AEB-L stainless steel — BCB's house steel, heat treated to 60 HRC. Fine-grained, highly refined, and in this profile it takes an exceptionally clean edge that holds through real prep work and comes back fast when it needs attention.

The handle is figured stabilized walnut — warmer and more visually complex than its sibling, with natural grain movement that rewards a closer look. Stabilized for complete moisture resistance and long term stability. Carbon fiber pins anchor it cleanly and let the wood tell its own story.

The Bonneville is a family name for me. A dream that lives on the salt flats of western Utah — flat ground, wide open, full of possibility. My family hasn't run there yet. But we will. This knife carries that intention every time it leaves the shop.

Every dimension, every grind angle, every edge bevel was done by hand in my 80 sq ft shop in Provo, Utah. No production line. No shortcuts. One knife at a time.
