Overview
An 8-piece forged knife set built for heavy kitchen and outdoor cutting: bone chopper, meat cleaver, viking knife, cleaver, fillet knife, dividing knife and paring knife, all zipped into one carry bag. Suited to cooks who process whole cuts of meat or fish at home or on a hunting and camping trip.
This is less a starter knife block and more a butchering kit: the lineup leans toward heavy cleavers and a bone chopper rather than everyday paring work, though a paring knife is included for smaller tasks. Each blade is stonewashed high carbon stainless finished to a 58+2 HRC hardness with a 16 degree edge per side, and full tang construction with three handle rivets keeps the balance suited to the heavier cleaver-style blades. The carry bag is the detail that separates it from a countertop block: this is built to travel to a hunt, a butcher job, or a campsite, not just sit in a kitchen drawer.
- 8 pieces including bag: bone chopper, cleaver, viking, fillet, dividing and paring knives
- 58+2 HRC high carbon stainless steel with stonewashed hammer finish
- 16 degree per-side edge on each blade
- Full tang walnut handles with three rivets
Who it's for
Hunters, home butchers and anyone who breaks down whole cuts of meat, poultry or fish will get the most use from this set. A household that only slices vegetables and bread does not need a bone chopper or meat cleaver and would be better served by a standard chef knife set.
Pros and cons
- Covers cleaver, bone chopper and fillet tasks in one set
- Carry bag makes it practical for camping or hunting trips
- Full tang, triple riveted handle suited to heavy chopping
- Skews toward heavy-duty blades, not an everyday paring set
- Wood handle needs hand drying, not dishwasher safe by design
Performance notes
The stated 58+2 HRC hardness and 16 degree per-side edge point to a blade ground for edge retention on tough, sinewy cuts rather than the thinner, more fragile edge used on delicate slicing knives. Full tang construction and three rivets through the walnut handle are meant to keep the heavier blades, like the meat cleaver and bone chopper, from feeling handle-heavy or unstable during forceful cuts.
