Suncraft Ever Peeler Replacement Blade
The blade is made from 440A stainless steel is normally used for high quality knives, so it stays sharp with daily use and slices through produce with the utmost ease, unlike other flimsy brands. It makes quick work of even the toughest, hard-skinned foods like butternut squash, breaking it down into paper-thin shavings. Find the Ever Peeler here. This is just the replacement blade.
Milk Street Bunka Knife
The Milk Street Bunka Knife is the turbocharged take on what an all-purpose knife can be. Similar in size to the more widely known santoku, the bunka’s nearly constant 6.75-inch blade width functions much like a nakiri, ideal for precise vegetable prep, safety (shields the fingers when slicing) and scooping up foods like a bench scraper into your mixing bowl or hot skillet. But unlike the squared-off tip of the nakiri, the bunka’s blade tapers into a chisel-like kiritsuke tip (translates as “slit open”), which allows for piercing cuts and fine detail work when prepping ingredients like meat. The nearly flat blade profile arcs subtly to the tip, meaning it can be used for rock chopping or mincing. You know those instances where you thought you sliced a pepper into thin strips and it all stuck together, like an accordion? Not a chance of that with the bunka. The mid-sized, premium German steel blade is also the perfect compromise in length. It’s long enough to cleanly slice proteins or span a whole cabbage, but short enough to always be in complete control without feeling unwieldy. And the ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip regardless of your hand size. No more slipping and twisting when you really just want to hold tight. It’s a knife you can use for everything from peeling garlic and onions to chopping a precise brunoise and peeling the tough silverskin off a pork tenderloin, then slicing it into fine cutlets. If you’re confident with a razor-tipped chef’s knife and precision handling, the bunka is your answer.
Milk Street Cleaver
Every cook needs a big, burly knife for the tough stuff. A big chuck roast to turn into stew meat? A soccer-ball sized cabbage to shred for coleslaw? Chicken legs need splitting? Tasks like these make most knives feel puny and insignificant.
Sometimes, you just need a big knife for kitchen tasks, but they often feel heavy, clumsy and downright unsafe in the hand. Often, the blades are ultra-thick—for only brutish, heavy-duty tasks—or are designed with unique blade shapes, which require a learning curve to master. Or, they have stubby handles barely long enough to grip.
Enter the Milk Street Cleaver, an all-purpose knife designed to work equally well for vegetables and butchering big cuts of meat. At 7 inches long, 3 inches tall and less than half a pound, this tool is an inch shorter than the average cleaver for a lighter, more nimble experience. However, it maintains full height for shielding fingers during chopping and using as a bench scraper to scoop up and transfer prepped foods to the pot. And, at only 2 millimeters thick at the spine, this cleaver is as thin as possible to maintain stiffness, yet slices with little force.
Unlike most cleavers that feature a basic rectangular blade design, the Milk Street Cleaver boasts some distinctive design points. The blade arcs inward at the heel to allow for multiple grips, while keeping your fingers guarded and preserving the length of the blade. To feel and function like a smaller knife, the cutaway heel lets you choke up close and tight on the blade. Or slide your hand back on the handle for more clearance, leverage and power.
The blade’s edge differs as well. Compared to the typical cleaver’s perfectly straight blade edges, the Milk Street Cleaver gently curves tip to heel for a natural slicing and chopping motion. It’ll feel the same in use as your chef’s knife—but safer while requiring less effort!
The blade’s unique embossed file pattern creates a nonstick surface—air gets trapped between the food being cut and the blade, preventing foods from clinging. Food falls right off. And a full-sized, ergonomic handle, far longer than the stubby handles on most traditional Chinese-style cleavers, helps creates a neutral midpoint balance that feels more natural than the forward-leaning heft of most cleavers.
Milk Street Kitchin-to™ & Kitchin-kiji™ Set
A unique cross between a Japanese vegetable knife and a Chinese cleaver, the Kitchin-to™ will replace your chef’s knife. The knife's overall design borrows elements from our two favorite knives: the Japanese vegetable knife (nakiri) and the Chinese cleaver (cai dao). The 7-inch-long blade is nearly as tall as a cleaver—almost 2.5 inches at the butt—and 1.5 millimeters thick, much thinner than most Western-style knives and sharpened to an acute 15-17 degrees per side. The Kitchin-to™, made from German 1.4116 Steel, will hold an edge for ages without any maintenance, so it's able to mince, chop, slice and push-cut with ease. Plus, it's broad enough to use as a bench scraper for transferring chopped foods from the cutting board. And similar to a Japanese santoku, the gently arced blade design can be used for both Western- and Japanese-style cutting methods. Its blunt tip keeps fingers safe, and the butt of the bolsterless blade is curved inward to make it easy to grip for fine control. A filework pattern machined into the blade near the handle acts as a grippy, tactile point for the thumb and index finger to grasp securely.
Based on the Japanese kawamuki knife, a medium-sized all-purpose utility knife used for peeling and carving vegetables, the Milk Street Kitchin-kiji is the “in-between” utility knife that most home cooks are missing. At 3.5-inches long, its flat profile takes the design of a paring knife to a whole new level, perfect for handwork like peeling the papery skin off garlic cloves and shallots, trimming mushrooms or cutting fruit. The 1.4116 German steel blade is ideal for control and fine detail work; the broad blade tapers and curves quickly to a fine razor tip for tight detail work, like removing the eyes from potatoes, coring strawberries and trimming meats. Plus, we subtly angled the blade upwards from the handle to provide knuckle clearance (a major flaw in most smaller knives that have your fingers bumping up against your cutting board). Plus, the ergonomic lock-in handle, etched with our signature pattern for extra grippiness, is subtly oversized to fill the hand for a secure, confident grip that won’t turn and twist with use. It’s made from matte finish vintage black polymer that’s durable and comfortable over time.
Tsubame Multi-Purpose Flexible Spreading Knife
This hard-to-find spreading knife from Japan is unlike any tool we’ve encountered before—imagine a slim spatula with a sharp serrated cutting edge, that spreads and cuts with equal ease. The carefully crafted blade is so thin and flexible, it out-bends even metal spatulas. The bendy blade scoops and spreads butter and spreads, and its micro-serrations cut tomatoes, fruit, bread, cheese or sandwiches cleanly without squashing—it’s your new table hero.
The handle is made of Japanese Zelkova wood and fits comfortably in the hand. The little bird emblazoned on the blade is a nod to the knife’s hometown, Tsubame (it translates to “swallow” in Japanese), an area famous for the craftsmanship of stainless steel tools.
Milk Street Nakiri & Peeler Set
Milk Street Nakiri
What if we told you there is a Japanese knife specifically designed for vegetable prep that will make your cooking safer, easier and faster? It is vastly better than the all-purpose European chef’s knife, which is clunky, heavy and too thick to precisely slice and dice onions, cut carrots into perfect coins or reduce chard into feathery ribbons. The solution is the Milk Street Nakiri. It’s light, thin and sharp, with a design that resembles a mini cleaver—2 inches deep with a squared-off tip. A very thin blade, just 1.6 millimeters at the top, tapers down even thinner toward the end so it slices through even tough ingredients effortlessly without bending. The broad blade shields your fingers when you chop and works as a bench scraper to transfer chopped veggies to the simmering pot. With the help of veteran industrial designer David Lewin, we added a few special touches. The blade is embossed with a nonstick file pattern that replicates the kourochi (blacksmith) or tshuchime (pear skin) finish to traditional nakiris, so sliced ingredients fall right off. A gentle curve accommodates fingers when choking up tight for control, and the handle has been designed to provide a nonslip grip.
Most peelers do a lousy job. The blades are made of inferior steel so they do not peel easily and the peel itself is often too thick. The blades dull over time so you have to throw it out. Many designs have uncomfortable handles or the handles are awkward since they are not aligned properly with the blade. And when it comes to thick, tough skins such as butternut squash, you might as well give up before you start. That is why we just redesigned the peeler, using top-grade 420 stainless steel for the replaceable blade (why don’t all peelers have replaceable blades?) and a handle that is big enough for a firm, easy grip. Try it just once and you will find that it peels like cutting through butter. It’s that good!
Milk Street Limited Edition Premium Kitchin-kiji — Cocobolo Wood
The one kind of knife missing from most Western kitchens is one of the most used in Japan—a midsized, multipurpose utility knife bigger and stronger than a paring knife but smaller and more manageable than a chef’s knife. Why Western cooks typically don’t have such a knife is beyond us, so we took months to design our own. The result is the Kitchin-kiji—the ultimate all-purpose utility knife that will speed up your prep. It’s perfect for all the “in-between” jobs, small enough for detailed handwork like slicing garlic and shallots, trimming mushrooms or cutting fruit. Plus, we designed it with a broad, stiff blade to be large enough that it won’t twist, and the larger handle fills the hand for a confident grip.
This is a Limited edition, premium run of our tried-and-true Milk Street Kitchin-kiji knife. It features a high-end Japanese AUS 8 steel blade specially forged with a non-stick “Tsuchime” hammered surface and a gorgeously grained, ultra-durable cocobolo wood handle.And it comes with a custom saya, or knife guard, to keep your blade keen and protect it in storage. Consider it an heirloom-quality tool to use and pass on to the next generation of cooks in your family.

Learn how to sharpen all of your knife skills in with this digital class hosted by Matthew Card, Milk Street's Food Editor and resident knife fanatic.
Work Sharp Ceramic Honing Rod
Honing rods are an essential tool for maintaining a knife's fine razor edge. With use, a knife's blade curls over, effectively dulling the edge. A few gentle swipes on each side of the blade helps realign the edge, making it razor sharp again without the full effort of a proper sharpening with a whetstone. We prefer ceramic over metal, which does a better job of restoring the edge across a broad range of blade steels. Work Sharp’s rod comes with a built-in angle guide of 20 degrees (most Western knives are made to around that angle) for consistent sharpening, but the rod works for any blade. And a rubber tip secures the rod to your surface, so it won’t slip as you hone. It fits in most knife blocks, or thread a lanyard through the hole in the handle to hang it for easy access.
triangle Tools Serrated Pie Knife
Slice your pie and serve it, too, with this Serrated Pie Knife from triangle Tools. This sleek, stainless steel server features one smooth edge and one serrated edge, so you can cut into soft cakes or pie crust with equal ease. After cutting, the pie knife’s flat 7-inch blade slides easily under slices to pull them out cleanly. Their tools are made in Solingen, a German city known for high-quality cutlery. The handle is made from a sturdy polymer, hand-finished and completed with rivets for secure attachment.

Milk Street: Limited Edition Premium Kitchin-to — Cocobolo Wood
Traditional European chef’s knives are big, heavy and awkward because they evolved from Middle Ages daggers, which were designed for personal defense, not kitchen work. There’s good reason its so hard to prep a tidy dice.
Our solution was to look toward Japan, where there’s a long history—and huge range—of smartly designed kitchen knives grown out of swordmaking. By design, Japanese knives are thinner, lighter and task specific—separate blade styles, for meats, fish, vegetables, etc. Based on these knives and our own cooking experience, we developed an all-new modern chef’s knife that’s remarkably easy to use. It’s the Milk Street Kitchin-to, part cleaver and part vegetable knife. It can handle small jobs such as slicing garlic but also makes heavy-duty jobs a breeze. With the Kitchin-to, you let the knife do the work!
This is a Limited edition, premium run of our tried-and-true Milk Street Kitchin-To knife. It features a high-end Japanese AUS8 steel blade specially treated with a non-stick “Tsuchime” hammered surface and a gorgeously grained cocobolo wood handle. And it comes with a custom saya, or knife guard, to keep your blade keen and protect it in storage. Consider it an heirloom-quality tool to pass on to the next generation.
Milk Street Kitchin-Ki Paring Knife
The Milk Street Kitchin-Ki Paring Knife will ship by October 15, 2024
Paring knives are the overlooked, throwaway knives of the modern kitchen—poorly designed, poorly made and useless for most everyday tasks. Most have blades that are too long to be precise when cutting or feel too flimsy and flexible to inspire confidence. The puny handles feel like an afterthought sized for a child, providing insufficient grip to feel safe. They’re ill-suited for what they are supposed to do: close, detail-oriented work, most of which is handheld and off the cutting board.
The Milk Street Kitchin-Ki is a complete reinvention of the paring knife. It matches an ultra-short—just 2.75 inches—fine-tipped blade with an oversized ergonomic handle for a knife that provides complete control over all the small tasks. The tapered handle and textured patch on the top of the blade provide a safe grip regardless of how you hold it.
Most European knife-makers haven’t altered their designs in generations, but we looked outside that tradition for inspiration. The Kitchin-Ki’s unique blade design takes cues from sources as diverse as Japanese peeling knives, antique utility knives collected from trunk sales, stubby woodcarving blades and those work-worn kitchen knives your grandmother uses—shrunk down from generations of meals and maintenance.
Nearly an inch shorter than our current smallest knife, the Kitchin-kiji, the Kitchin-Ki isn’t a standalone knife. Instead, it’s the companion piece for peeling and prepping before you pick up a bigger knife to slice, dice and chop your way to dinner. Use it for peeling garlic and shallots, halving an avocado, removing the outer layers of leeks or scallions, removing the ribs from chilies, coring tomatoes or strawberries, stemming and peeling mushrooms, prepping shrimp, trimming chicken and meat and so much more. It’ll quickly become an indispensable tool for all the incidental tasks meal prep throws at you.
Milk Street Butcher Knife Bundle
Meet the knives we reach for when prepping meat, poultry and fish. The Milk Street Cleaver turns a chuck roast into stew meat and splits chicken legs with minimal effort, while the Bunka knife's chisel-like tip will easily peel the tough silverskin off a pork tenderloin, then slice it into fine cutlets.
The Milk Street Cleaver is an all-purpose knife designed to work equally well for vegetables and butchering big cuts of meat.
