Best Seller Knife Set


Two best sellers in one set
Time and again, discerning home chefs gravitate towards these two perfectly mid-sized knives. Other knife companies focus solely on huge chef knives and tiny paring knives, but we've found a sweet spot in the middle for those who want big knife capabilities with mid-sized knife agility and control. Both knives function as great cutting board knives- the Chopper makes quick work of dicing veggies, herbs, and onions. The Petty makes all the small to medium-sized paring, slicing, and filleting jobs in your kitchen feel effortless. Perfect as a gift, to start your New West collection, or for more portable knives when you're on the go, our Petty knife and Chopper together as our "Best Seller" Knife Set is sure to make cooking a delight.

The Chopper: A vegetable's nightmare.
This signature knife has been a New West classic since its award-winning debut on the fine arts and crafts circuit. While vegetables have nightmares about this chopping champion, you'll have sweet dreams about making salads and salsa. A mid-size knife that makes a large-size impact on the cutting board.

The Petty challenges that notion by handling both roles with "the perfect balance of power and grace (Bon Appetit)." Excelling at peeling, paring, boning, carving and other delicate work for vegetables, fruits, and herbs the PETTY ALSO takes on some of the slicing and dicing jobs of a larger chef knife.
