Thai blacksmiths have 200 years of experience making swords, and now they put that skill to use making our Thai Chef’s Knives. This Thai knife is made of stainless steel, cut and sharpened to traditional standards. Our chef's knife #2 has a full tang blade set in a smooth, native Thai Pradu wood handle. It’s a medium-weight cleaver with rounded corners, making it a hard-working jack-of-all-trades that feels just right in your hand. Great for all-around cooking.

Perfect Control

This medium-weight cleaver is a knife that’s perfect for most cooking. Unlike the Thai Chef Knife #1, this blade is longer, translating to faster and easier slicing and dicing.

This is our best Tortilla Press for homemade Tortillas and making street tacos. Everyone Loves Tortillas. They’re easy to buy, but we’re obsessed with the homemade ones. Chewy in the middle, crispy edges, with a delicious slightly corn-y taste. They win brownie points at date night, themed dinners, and potlucks.  So easy to make with our Mexican Tortilla Press.  Once you try it, you won’t go back to store-bought. Trust us on this. (This size is ideal for street tacos!). Diameter: 6.5''

So delicious, so simple

Mix equal parts masa corn flour (widely available in grocery stores) with water; make a golf ball-sized dough. Line the press with parchment paper or a ziploc bag cut down the sides. Place the dough in between the paper/plastic, and close the press. Press once, rotate, and gently press again. Cook ~1 minute on each side. Then keep your tortillas warm in the included handmade servilleta napkin. For more details, check out our How To Make Homemade Tortillas recipe>>.

Instant street (taco) cred

We once gifted a tortilla press to our friend Ben, who now takes the tortilla press to every Taco Tuesday and Mexican-themed night. Once he pulls out the tortilla press, all the ladies join him for tortilla-making. The tortilla press isn’t a puppy, but it’s close.

Made from recycled parts

Our tortilla press is made in Mexico from old Singer sewing machines and other recycled irons. We chose to use cast iron because it gives you uniform, flat tortillas - and lasts forever. And we added some Verve Culture flare with a bright enamel coating that prevents rust.

Made by Thai blacksmiths in a traditional style and method, our Thai Moon Knife sSet will have a place of honor in your kitchen. These carbon steel Thai knives are a must have for creative kitchens. Each knife set is packaged in a perfectly fitted mango wood box. This pair of uniquely shaped, hand-forged chef knives are professionally made for a variety of cuts.

A Powerful Duo

The lightweight, carbon steel Moon Knife (named for its round shape) allows for a longer cut. Its light, thin blade makes it ideal for preparing coconut, watermelon, hard-skinned fruits - and, all meat.

The straight edged Slice Knife combines the duties of both a chef's knife and a cleaver for precision tasks like mincing and paper-thin slicing.

About 200 years ago, blacksmiths made beautiful, intricate swords for the Thai-Burma war. Today, they make chef knives. A whole community is involved in a different part of the steel forging process! Families form co-operatives and have skilled workers dedicated to forging, grinding, stamping, woodwork, and finishing. Learn more about them here.

Dimensions & Care

Never put in the dishwasher. Due to the nature of carbon steel, this knife will eventually form a patina. This is normal and can help prevent rust. To avoid rusting, dry thoroughly after hand washing in warm, soapy water. Do not put away until fully dry. Store away from humidity in the bamboo box provided.

Maintenance
Use Japanese Waterstones or similar sharpening stones to sharpen your knife-never on a hot grinder or belt sander. Find a reputable sharpener experienced in knives. We recommend a protective layer of oil *olive, vegetable, canola) on the exposed carbon steel. Apply after washing and drying. Any Rust should be removed immediately so it doesn't spread. Use rust cleaner for light rust, or rust eraser/fine grit sandpaper for heavier rust.

11.5" L (with handle) x 4" W x 1.5 centimeters H-Moon Knife
10" L (with handle) x 2.5" W x 1 centimeter H - Slice Knife
