A New Chef Knife by NWKW & Chef Justin Khanna
At New West KnifeWorks, we believe that a great knife is more than a tool—it’s an extension of the artist’s hand, a source of joy in the kitchen, and a symbol of craftsmanship at its finest. Our mission to make the finest knives in the world means we can never rest on our laurels, but need to keep experimenting to stay on the cutting edge. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our latest collaboration with the internet's resident "guru of chef knives," Michelin trained Chef and Content Creator Justin Khanna.
We first found Chef Justin on Youtube when we were searching for "knife reviews"-- we like to keep abreast of what's new out there and how we can up our game. Justin has established himself as THE absolute expert on chef knives on the platform in his popular reviews, especially in the nuances of how design details effect performance. We decided to make a knife with Justin that combines his profound understanding of knife performance with our own experience on the cutting edge..
AND, we are going to share the process of developing this new knife by periodically pulling back the curtain and giving you a peak behind the scenes.
The Process: A Shared Passion for Excellence
What happens when the best in culinary craftsmanship meets the best in knife-making? Pure magic. Dive into the design journey with New West KnifeWorks founder Corey Milligan and Chef Justin Khanna as they share their inspirations, challenges, and the meticulous process that brought this knife to life.
