Details

Meet the Limited-Edition Knife that started it all. Back in small quantities for the first time since it sold out in mere hours in 2019, the Blue Carapace Chef Knife features a striking hand-finished handle that won’t slip or fade.

To craft the world’s best Chef Knife, we began at the birthplace of the world’s first Chef Knife: Thiers, France. Each blade is full tang and fully forged, meaning it’s crafted from a single rod of stainless steel for a sharper, perfectly balanced Knife.

This one features a lapis handle crafted from blue micarta, an incredibly strong resin and fabric composite with an opalescent finish. Modeled after carapace, it makes an elegant, entirely unique addition to your kitchen. Discover why the Blue Carapace Chef Knife sold out so quickly—and claim yours before it does it again.

Committed to Craftsmanship

Forged by a 5th generation bladesmith in Thiers, France

“I would say that a good chef knife is one of the most critical tools you can have in the kitchen. Obviously, almost every ingredient you come in contact with you’re going to cut or manipulate in some way.”

“When you grab those knives and you go to slice or chop, the handle should feel good in your hand. The Made In knives definitely meet that requirement and they also keep their edge, and that’s really really important”
