Why you'll Love It

When we first released the Bear Hands Edition Knife, it sold out almost instantly. Fans have been asking for its return ever since, and after countless requests, we’re bringing it back for one final limited run.

Inspired by Bear’s passion for cooking and storytelling, this knife was created to reflect everything he stands for: simplicity, power, and performance. Working with our master bladesmiths, he designed a blade that balances artistry and function in perfect harmony.

Each knife is made from American S35VN steel for exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and cutting performance. The hand-drawn Bear Hands artwork is CNC engraved into the blade, and the burl wood and epoxy handle ensures every knife is one of a kind.

The Story Behind the Blade

The Bear Hands Edition Knife was born from a shared passion for cooking and craftsmanship. After inspiring hundreds of millions of people with his recipes, Bear wanted to create a knife that captured the same creativity, precision, and authenticity that define his food.

To bring his vision to life, Bear partnered with The Cooking Guild, a team of master bladesmiths known for their dedication to true craftsmanship. Together, they designed a knife that blends strength, artistry, and performance in perfect harmony.

One-of-a-Kind Epoxy Burl Wood

Each handle is hand poured and individually crafted using a mix of natural burl wood and high-grade epoxy resin. The result is a stunning fusion of color and grain that forms naturally as the materials blend together.
 

No two handles are ever the same. Every swirl, knot, and detail tells its own story, giving each knife a truly unique personality. Beautiful, durable, and perfectly balanced, this handle turns every cut into an experience.

What materials are your knives made from?

We use only premium steels imported from Japan & USA in most of our collections, including high carbon and Damascus steel. These materials are chosen for their exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and strength. Our handles are crafted from durable pakkawood or epoxy resin, offering both comfort and long lasting performance. Each knife is built with a full tang construction, ensuring perfect balance and stability in every cut. These are not mass produced knives. They are crafted to last and perform.

What’s included in your 30 day home trial?

Every order comes with a risk free 30 day trial. You can try the knife at home and if it is not the perfect fit, you can return it unused and in its original packaging within 30 days. It is a simple and pressure free way to make sure you are confident in your choice.

Do your knives come with a warranty?

Yes, all of our knives include a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty. If you ever experience a defect in the materials or craftsmanship, just reach out to our team and we will make it right. We stand behind every blade we make.

How do I care for and maintain my knife?

Our knives are high performance tools that are designed to last when properly maintained. Always hand wash your knife and dry it immediately after use to prevent rust, especially with high carbon steel. Sharpen regularly with a whetstone or honing rod to maintain the edge, and store your knife safely in a sheath or knife block to protect the blade.

Are the knives comfortable and safe to use?

Yes. Our knives are engineered with ergonomics in mind, offering a comfortable grip and a balanced feel to reduce hand fatigue. The precision edge allows you to cut with less force, giving you more control and improving both safety and performance with every slice.
