THE SECRET INGREDIENT:
American Steel
100% American Made, From Blade to Handle
American manufacturing is coming back and we are on the frontlines. At New West KnifeWorks we forge American craftsmanship, USA Steel, and Yankee ingenuity into world-class knives.
Functional Art, as Beautiful as it is Useful
When you love the tools you use, everyday chores become a joy. A finely crafted knife is an extension of the hand that wields it. More than a tool, it becomes a finely tuned instrument for the culinary artist.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
American manufacturing is coming back and we are on the frontlines. At New West KnifeWorks we forge American craftsmanship, USA Steel, and Yankee ingenuity into world-class knives that represent the cutting edge of cutlery.
SHARPER LONGER
Powder metallurgy lets us pack more carbon in our blades with special alloys to keep it tough and flexible-- that means they take an extreme edge and keep it.
LIFETIME GUARANTEE
One good knife that lasts a lifetime is all you need. Our craftsmanship is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
PROCESS PERFECTION
We spent two decades developing a chef knife for the eclectic modern kitchen. Tradition plus ingenuity- the best of both worlds gives our blades the edge.
CHEF COLLABORATIONS
Blades made to thrive under the most challenging conditions- the professional kitchen. That’s why these pros have New West knives in their knife roll.
FREE SHARPENING
We offer free sharpening service on all of our knives to help you Stay Sharp. Drop your knives off or ship them in and you’ll get them back “factory sharp.”
AMERICAN MATERIALS

CPM S35VN steel is made in America and is “best in class” for chef knives.
ARTIST COLLABORATIONS
We started selling knives on the Arts and Crafts circuit. Our aim to bring beauty to everyday life inspired us to open the New West Fine Art Gallery in Jackson Hole.

G10: BEAUTIFUL AND BOMBPROOF
Don’t be fooled by the pretty colors, these handles are bombproof. Originally developed for the motherboard of a computer, this fiberglass laminate is extremely tough, feels good in the hand, and thrives in the hot and humid environment of a professional kitchen.
THE BEST STEEL FOR CHEF KNIVES
CPM S35VN is the best steel available for kitchen use. Sharpness, edge-holding, stain-resistance, toughness: the powder metal process lets us pack in more carbon and special alloys with none of the tradeoffs of other high-carbon blades.
PROFESSIONALLY TESTED AND APPROVED
From top test kitchens like Bon Appetit and Food & Wine to Michelin star restaurants and your local favorite bistro, New West KnifeWorks is professionally tested and approved. “My Best Friend in the Kitchen.” Hunter Lewis, Editor in Chief, Food & Wine Magazine.

THE NEW WEST
DIFFERENCE.
Why are these the best chef knives on the market?
At New West, we respect tradition, but we don’t let it keep us from moving forward. We take the best traditional techniques, the most innovative materials, and design knives for the specific needs of the modern, eclectic kitchen.
What's with the colorful handles?
When you love the tools you use, you form a bond with them, and it makes you want to play with them more. This helps folks transform their relationship with food prep - turning everyday chores into an opportunity to play.
CPM S35VN Is the optimal kitchen knife steel.
In the past, every good quality steel came with a negative side effect. For example, an ultra-sharp knife would be brittle. A super-tough knife would be difficult to sharpen. Powder metal lets us transcend the old paradigm so you get all the good and none of the bad.
Mountain Man (and Woman!) Made.
Our knives are made in the shadow of the Teton Mountains near Jackson Hole,. Besides being a foodie mecca, JH is a center for hard-charging outdoor enthusiasts. All of our knives are developed for and tested in the field by professional chefs, anglers, hunters, and foragers.
Knives guaranteed to last a lifetime.
We believe you only need ONE GOOD KNIFE to handle most of your cooking tasks- and that knife should provide you a lifetime of service in your kitchen. All of our knives are backed by a lifetime guarantee.
