The Vintage French Butcher Knife

The French butcher knife is a workhorse blade - broad, sturdy, and built for breaking down larger cuts of meat, trimming, and heavy prep work. High carbon steel at 58 HRC takes a keen edge and develops a natural patina with use - a characteristic prized by cooks who appreciate old-world steel. Fully forged and full tang, this is a blade built to last another lifetime.

Care & Maintenance

  • Hand wash only - never dishwasher
  • Dry immediately after use - carbon steel will rust if left wet
  • Apply a light coat of food-safe oil if storing for extended periods
  • Expect a natural patina to develop with use - this is normal and protective
  • Hone regularly with a honing steel to maintain the edge
  • Sharpen with a whetstone as needed
  • Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block
