The Authentic Thai Moon Knife Set

This is the pair of carbon steel chef knives hand-forged by blacksmiths in Thailand.

The second blade is a straight edged “slice knife” designed to combine the duties of both a chef’s knife and a cleaver for precision slicing and food prepping. Both knives come with a rounded Pradu wood handle. The set arrives in a mango wood box. Handwash only. Moon knife is 11 1/2" L with handle, Slice knife is 10" L with handle.
