How Our Resin Knives Are Made (The Nomad Series)

The Nomad Series was created for cooks who want something different — knives that feel grounded in nature but engineered for performance.

1. Forged Steel Comes First

Every Nomad knife starts with a properly heat-treated forged blade. Balance, edge geometry, and cutting performance are never compromised for looks.

2. Hand-Cast Epoxy Resin Handles

Each handle is cast using a controlled epoxy resin process, blending:

• Natural burl wood

• Custom resin pigments

• Pressure stabilization to remove air pockets

This ensures strength, longevity, and clarity throughout the handle.

3. Shaped, Balanced, and Hand-Finished

Once cured, each handle is shaped by hand to ensure:

• Comfortable grip

• Proper knife balance

• Seamless transitions between steel and handle

No two Nomad knives ever come out identical — and that’s the point.

Are Resin Knives Durable Enough for Everyday Use?

This is one of the most common questions people ask when researching resin knives — and the answer is yes, when done correctly.

Epoxy resin handles are:

• Highly impact-resistant

• Stable under temperature changes

• Resistant to water absorption

When paired with a full-tang forged blade and proper finishing, resin knives are perfectly suited for daily kitchen use, not just collectors’ shelves.

Resin Knives vs Traditional Wooden Handles

This is why more chefs, outdoor cooks, and home enthusiasts are moving toward epoxy resin knives for their main kitchen tools.

Why No Two Resin Knives Are Ever the Same

Because resin knives combine organic burl wood and hand-poured epoxy, every handle captures a moment in time:

• Wood grain forms naturally

• Resin flows differently with every pour

• Pigments settle uniquely in each mold

Owning a resin knife means owning something genuinely unique — not a replicated factory output.

The Nomad Series: Resin Knives Built for Real Cooking

The Nomad Series isn’t about fragile showpieces. It’s about:

• Forged performance

• Durable epoxy resin construction

• Handles that feel alive in hand

• Knives designed to be used, not babied

Each knife is finished with the expectation that it will see years of real chopping, slicing, and prep — not just admiration.

Final Thoughts: Are Resin Knives Worth It?

If you’re looking for:

• A knife that performs as good as it looks

• A handle that won’t crack, swell, or degrade

• Something that feels truly personal

Then a forged epoxy resin knife with burl wood is absolutely worth it.

Resin knives represent the intersection of modern materials and traditional craftsmanship — and when done right, they deliver both beauty and reliability for the long haul.
