It's an ongoing, monthly-rotating series, and each knife carries that spirit forward.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaffir \u003cstrong\u003e\"Amber Ridge\"\u003c\/strong\u003e settles into rich brown with fine amber veining that moves beneath the surface in quiet, branching lines. The pattern catches the light gently, revealing layers that seem to shift from one angle to the next. Warm without being bright, the handle carries the steady character of weathered woodlands seen in late afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the color and grain, this is still the knife it has always been. The blade is CPM S35VN particle metallurgy steel — the same super steel U.S. Special Forces trust for their field knives — ground and hand-finished at our factory in Victor, Idaho, in the shadow of the Teton Range. Hand-sharpened before it ever leaves our shop, because that's the one step no machine has ever matched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a display piece. It is a working knife built from materials that happen to be beautiful — the New West KnifeWorks definition of functional art. Use it every day. Pass it down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne knife. One handle. \"Amber Ridge\" is one of one.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New West Manufacturing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44088124276823,"sku":"NW-9CF-SEM-S35-2","price":520.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0010\/5578\/4988\/files\/9__Chef_Maker_s_Etch__Raffir__Amber_Ridge__3.jpg?v=1786124787","url":"https:\/\/www.newwestknifeworks.mom\/products\/9-chef-makers-mark-raffir-amber-ridge","provider":"New West KnifeWorks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
