Professional Opinion

Beyond the cobra-shaped finger rest with red crystal eyes, the Viper is a practical working tool in Japanese 440-C stainless rated at HRC 59, with convex hollow-ground blades and an ergonomic offset handle. Pick 5.5 or 6.0 inches if you want personality on the station without giving up specification.
