Admiral Chef Knife

The Admiral — 8.25″ Chef Knife

The Admiral is the cornerstone of the Annapolis Knife Company collection—designed as a true everyday chef’s knife with the balance, authority, and restraint of a commanding instrument. Inspired by life on the water and crafted for serious work in the kitchen, the Admiral pairs modern performance with enduring materials rooted in maritime heritage.

• Its 8.25″ blade is forged from CPM MagnaCut steel, heat treated to 61 HRC for exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness—ideal for cooks who demand precision without compromise. The profile offers confident knuckle clearance with a 2.1″ heel height, while the overall geometry favors smooth, controlled cuts across vegetables, proteins, and herbs.

The handle is crafted from reclaimed teak, salvaged from working boats and finished to highlight the wood’s natural warmth and history. Brass screws secure the handle, adding both structural integrity and a subtle nautical accent that will develop character over time.

Balanced, durable, and refined, the Admiral is built to be used daily—and to last a lifetime.
