Not every job calls for a big blade. Sometimes what you need is something quicker, more precise—a knife that moves like it’s thinking ahead of you. The Cocobolo 5.5” Chef Knife is built for exactly that kind of work.
Made from 80CrV2 high carbon steel, this blade is tough, resilient, and ready to take a keen edge. It’s the kind of steel that doesn’t flinch under pressure—ideal for daily kitchen use where control matters just as much as sharpness.
At 5.5 inches, this knife lives in that sweet spot between a chef’s knife and a utility blade. It’s agile enough for tight work—herbs, garlic, small produce—but still carries enough length to handle larger prep when needed. The full flat grind keeps cuts smooth and efficient, letting the blade pass cleanly through food without resistance.
The handle is crafted from Cocobolo (rosewood)—dense, richly colored, and naturally comfortable in the hand. Its deep tones and tight grain give it a refined look without losing that rugged, work-ready feel. A copper bolster adds weight and balance up front, developing its own patina over time, while the half tang construction keeps the knife light, responsive, and easy to maneuver.
