PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This 2-piece Damascus knife set pairs two purpose-built blades into one high-performance kitchen configuration. A 10-inch Chinese cleaver handles the heavy work. A 13-inch carving knife handles precision slicing. Both are hand-forged from twisted pattern Damascus steel and fitted with red Pakka wood handles and stainless steel bolsters.
The Blades
The Chinese cleaver runs 10 inches — wide, heavy, and built for sustained chopping. It moves through dense vegetables, whole poultry, and thick cuts of meat without losing momentum. The blade spine adds weight that does the work for you.
The carving knife stretches to 13 inches — long, narrow, and built for clean, controlled slices. It pulls through roasts, brisket, whole fish, and large proteins in single strokes. Less drag, cleaner cuts, better portions.
Both blades are forged from layered 1095 high-carbon steel and 15N20 alloy steel using a twisted Damascus forging method. The layering process produces a blade with strong grain structure, solid edge retention, and a distinct swirl pattern across the steel. Heat treatment brings the hardness to 58–60 HRC — sharp enough for fine slicing, tough enough for repeated heavy use.
The Handles
Each knife fits a red Pakka wood handle. Pakka wood is resin-stabilized hardwood — it resists moisture, does not warp, and holds its shape under heavy daily use. The stainless steel bolster sits between blade and handle on each knife, adding balance weight and a built-in finger guard.
Both knives are full tang. The steel runs from blade tip through the full length of the handle. That continuity is what gives each knife its solid, balanced feel in the hand.

FAQs
What is a Chinese cleaver used for?
A Chinese cleaver is designed for chopping, slicing, and processing ingredients. The wide blade and weighted spine drive through dense vegetables and thick cuts of meat with minimal effort.
How is a carving knife different from a chef knife?
A carving knife is longer and narrower. It is built for slicing large proteins in long, clean strokes — roasts, whole birds, brisket. A chef knife handles general prep. A carving knife handles portioning.
What is twisted Damascus steel?
Twisted Damascus is made by layering high-carbon steel billets, twisting the stack during forging, then hammering and folding it repeatedly. The result is a swirl or tornado-style surface pattern that is unique to each blade.
Is red Pakka wood a strong handle material?
Yes. Pakka wood is stabilized with resin under pressure, which closes the grain and prevents moisture absorption. It outlasts untreated wood handles and holds up well in active kitchen conditions.
Can these knives go in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry immediately after washing. Store in a knife roll or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge.
Is this set suited for professional kitchen use?
Yes. Full tang construction, high-carbon Damascus steel, and steel bolsters make both knives suitable for sustained professional use.
Is engraving available on both knives?
Yes. Add your text at checkout or message before ordering. Engraving is permanent — confirm spelling before submitting.
Let customers speak for us
I'm very pleased with this tent after having it for two years I've been in the rain I've been in the snow and it's held up pretty good but the cover that covers it did not hold up that good but the tent is perfect
Really enjoy the awning. Easy setup and got a little rain on the first trip. Easy to adjust for the run off. Very happy with the purchase!
I am one of the earliest customers Astrodome, I bought it and didn’t set it up for almost a year. By the time we set it up, we were blown away by the beauty of this space we purchased it on a mountain ledge in our glamping retreat in Lake County California two hours north of San as much as I love this space there are definitely some challenges with it in our location. It might work better than other locations, but we have had problems with the stakes, slipping and collapsing in the ground beneath and with the prevailing winds, it did stay up and it stays dry, even in tornadoes, but because the wind hits it from One Direction coming from the coast, this is definitely been a challenge for us we are going to try adding some weight inside it. The guests absolutely love this space keep in mind that with those skylights it’s going to get hot in the summertime but what’s nice is in the winter. It heats up almost passive solar. it’s also wonderful with a woodstove. A very cost effective alternative to a geodesic dome! If you want to experience it stay in ours, on Hipcamp.
I bought one of these at Scheels and absolutely love it. Great design, has everything you would ever need in a first aid/trauma/survival kit. Have one in all of my vehicles now. These guys truly thought of everything
A complete coverage of possibilities for my project and needs.
I love my new tent stove. Costumer service was also attentive and great to work with. Thank you.
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
