Its compact blade makes peeling fruit, trimming vegetables, segmenting citrus, deveining shrimp, removing seeds, and preparing garnishes easier while maintaining exceptional control throughout every cut.

Its versatile profile also performs many of the tasks typically assigned to a utility or petty knife, making it an excellent option for cooks who prefer a streamlined knife collection without sacrificing capability.

Hand Forged from 52100 High Carbon Steel

Steelport crafts every blade from premium 52100 high carbon steel, a steel widely respected for its outstanding toughness, fine grain structure, exceptional edge retention, and ability to take an incredibly sharp edge. Unlike many mass-produced stainless steel knives, 52100 develops a natural patina over time that helps protect the blade while reflecting years of use.

Handcrafted in Portland, Oregon

Every Steelport knife is handcrafted in Portland, Oregon using traditional American manufacturing techniques. Skilled craftsmen individually forge, grind, heat treat, sharpen, assemble, and finish every knife, resulting in exceptional quality, performance, and craftsmanship that sets Steelport apart among American made kitchen knives.

Carbon Steel Knife Care

To keep your Steelport knife performing at its best, hand wash and dry it immediately after each use. Occasionally applying food-safe mineral oil helps protect the blade, while the natural patina that develops with use adds character and additional corrosion resistance. Proper care allows this handcrafted carbon steel knife to deliver exceptional cutting performance for years to come.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
