Handles are crafted from ergonomic Pakkawood for a secure, comfortable grip in any condition. Every knife features full tang construction for maximum balance and control.

I’ve always liked working with sharp knives and tools, so I carefully searched for the best balance between cost and quality—that’s how I found Cutluxe.
Unfortunately, one of the sharpening stones arrived damaged during shipping, so I contacted their customer service team. Their response was much faster than expected, and they promptly provided a solution.
This clearly shows their professionalism and commitment to customers. I highly recommend buying with confidence. Cutluxe is a serious, reliable brand and definitely worth the investment.

In Dec/25, I ordered the 5" Santoku for myself. I love it SO much, I bought 2 others for gifts. 1) The knife is well weighted, comfortable to hold, easy to use, sharp, sharp, sharp and beautiful to look at. 2) I know the recipients will love their Santoku as much as I love mine. 3) The packaging of the knife is amazing which is important if you are giving it as a gift. Very classy. 4) The customer service at Cutluxe is stellar. I had an issue regarding a return (of my own doing) and their response time immediate, polite and professional. I was very impressed with this aspect of the business. I have told many friends about the quality of the product and the superior after-sales responses. Thank you Cutluxe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

A cimeter (sometimes spelled scimitar) is a butcher's knife with a long curved blade. The curve isn't decorative — it follows the natural contour of large meat cuts, allowing you to use a sweeping pull stroke that follows the fat line and muscle grain rather than hacking straight through. The result is cleaner trim lines, less waste, and more precise portioning.If you're working with primals — whole briskets, pork shoulders, lamb legs, large beef cuts — a cimeter is the right tool for the breakdown and trim work. A chef's knife can manage it, but it wasn't designed for this. The 10" length gives you enough sweep to work through large cuts efficiently without fighting the blade.
The curve lets you use a rocking pull stroke that keeps the blade in contact with the meat through the full cut. On a straight blade, you're pushing against the resistance of the entire cutting surface at once. On a curved blade, the contact point rolls forward through the stroke — less force required, more control maintained, cleaner line on every pass.For trimming fat caps, skinning, and portioning large cuts, this matters a lot. The blade follows the shape of what you're cutting rather than fighting it. That's why professional butchers and pitmasters reach for a cimeter for this specific work — it's not a preference, it's the geometry of the job.
They do different jobs at different stages of the cook. The cimeter is a pre-cook knife — it handles the trimming, breaking down, and portioning of raw meat before anything goes on heat. The 12" Brisket Slicer is a post-cook knife — long, narrow, and designed to glide through a rested brisket in single smooth strokes without tearing.If you're cooking seriously, you want both: the cimeter to prep the meat properly, the slicer to present it properly. That's the logic behind the Pro Butcher Set (12" Brisket Slicer + 10" Cimeter + 6" Boning Knife), which covers the full workflow from raw primal to finished plate. Bought individually the cimeter is $44.99; the set is better value if you'll use all three.
Hand-wash only — no dishwasher. The heat and detergent cycle degrades both the edge and the Pakkawood handle bond over time. Wash with warm soapy water after use, dry immediately. The laminated polished finish handles kitchen moisture well, but don't leave it wet or soaking.The curved blade needs a honing rod that can follow the curve — use the Cutluxe 10" Honing Rod with long sweeping strokes to realign the edge between sharpenings. Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife roll, not loose in a drawer. The 10" length and curved profile mean it can do real damage to other blades if stored carelessly. Regular honing, hand-wash, dry immediately — that's the full routine.
Lifetime warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for the original purchaser. Not covered: dishwasher damage, misuse, or normal wear. Non-transferable. Contact support@cutluxe.com with proof of purchase to make a claim. 30-day money-back guarantee also included.As a gift: yes, and a more distinctive one than the usual chef's knife. Most serious home cooks and BBQ enthusiasts don't own a cimeter — it's the knife they've been reaching for a substitute on. At $44.99 it's a meaningful gift without being extravagant. Father's Day, housewarmings, and BBQ competition season are all natural fits. Ships within 24 hours, free US shipping.

From restaurant prep tables to backyard smoking sessions, this cimeter knife handles it all. Its size, shape, and weight are tailored for experts, making portioning, trimming, and carving a straightforward task rather than a chore. Feels right in the hand, performs like a professional tool.
