PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This Damascus chef and butcher knife set puts five hand-forged blades in your kitchen at once. Each knife is built from layered Damascus steel with a red pakka wood handle seated behind a solid brass bolster. Blade lengths run from 7 to 10 inches, covering heavy bone work on one end and fine prep cuts on the other. The set is designed for cooks who want one matched collection that handles every stage of meat preparation without switching between unrelated tools.
Hand-forged Damascus steel – blade construction and pattern
Every blade in this set is forged from layered Damascus steel. The process folds and welds multiple steel grades under heat and hammer, which creates the flowing ripple pattern visible from spine to edge on each knife. This forge method also builds a denser grain structure at the cutting edge compared to machine-stamped steel. The result is a blade that holds its edge longer and sharpens more precisely on a whetstone. Because each blade is hand-finished individually, the pattern on your set will not match the next one made.
Full tang construction and brass bolster
The blade steel runs the full length of the handle from tip to heel on every knife. On the butcher cleaver, this matters most. A partial tang can work loose under repeated downward force. The full tang spreads impact across the whole handle and keeps the knife stable on the return stroke. Three silver pins lock the tang through the red pakka wood handle. The solid brass bolster sits between blade and handle, acting as a natural finger stop and adding weight that improves balance close to the grip.
What is included – 5-knife configuration (7 to 10 inches)
This damascus kitchen knife set cleaver included covers heavy cuts and fine prep work within a single matched set.
- Butcher Cleaver (10" overall) — tall heel and thick spine for bone separation, joint work, and breaking down large cuts
- Chef Knife — primary blade for slicing, dicing, and rough chopping across all ingredients
- Santoku Knife — thin profile optimized for vegetables, herbs, and proteins where control matters more than force
- Utility Knife — precision work including silverskin trimming, scoring, and detail cuts
- Compact Chef Knife (7" overall) — fits tight spaces and shorter prep tasks where larger blades are too long to maneuver
Red pakka wood handle and brass bolster detail
Each handle is shaped from red pakka wood — a stabilized wood composite that resists moisture, cracking, and warping better than untreated hardwood. The wood grain runs through every handle, so no two pieces look identical. The solid brass bolster adds visual contrast against the red handle and serves a functional role as a finger guard during extended cutting sessions. Three silver pins complete the full tang attachment and add a polished finish detail along the handle profile.
Real-world cutting performance
The butcher cleaver handles cuts that most kitchen knives avoid: splitting chicken bones, portioning short ribs, and breaking down a brisket flat. The chef knife takes over for slicing and dicing. The santoku blade works well on vegetables and proteins where a thin edge beats a heavy one. The utility knife covers trimming and scoring with precision. The compact chef knife reaches into tight spaces and handles shorter prep tasks without the bulk of the larger blades. Together, this brass bolster kitchen knife set moves from raw butchery through to final plating cuts without needing a second set.
Who this set is built for
This red pakka wood Damascus knife set works for home butchers who process deer, hog, or beef and need a cleaver that handles bone separation without reaching for a second tool. BBQ cooks who work large cuts and want one matched set from trim to slice to serve. Serious home cooks who have outgrown stamped steel and want blades that improve with careful sharpening. And knife collectors who want a set where every piece looks like it was made by the same hand — because it was.
Knife care and maintenance
Hand wash each blade with warm water and dish soap after every use. Dry immediately with a cloth. Do not leave water on the blade or submerge in a dishwasher — the heat cycle strips the protective oil film from Damascus steel and accelerates surface rust. Every few weeks, apply a thin coat of food-safe mineral oil to each blade and wipe away the excess. Oil the red pakka wood handles at the same time to prevent drying at the bolster joint. Store on a magnetic strip, in a knife block, or in individual sheaths. Keep away from loose drawers where blades contact other metal.
Sharpening Damascus steel blades
Use a whetstone or ceramic rod and maintain the original bevel angle on every pass. Consistency protects the layered Damascus structure. Avoid electric sharpeners with coarse abrasive wheels — they remove material unevenly and can damage the layered steel. A honing rod used regularly between full sharpening sessions will keep your edge performing at its best between stone sessions.

Frequently asked questions
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!
