STEELPORT adds a premium carving set for holiday meals

STEELPORT Knife Co. has launched a $740 carving set made in Portland with a forged knife, matching carving fork and walnut presentation box. The new table-ready set is aimed at holiday meals, milestone gifts and heirloom-style use.

Why it matters: - The launch gives STEELPORT a new table-service product aimed at holiday hosting, gifting and long-term use. - The set extends the company’s heirloom-kitchen positioning beyond chef knives and into carved-at-the-table service. - The package includes lifetime warranty coverage and free sharpening for life, which raises the value proposition for a $740 purchase.

What happened: - STEELPORT Knife Co. launched The STEELPORT Carving Set on Sept. 22, 2026. - The set includes a 9-inch Carving Knife, a matching Carving Fork and a walnut presentation box. - The carving set is available now to order for $740. - Customers can buy STEELPORT products on STEELPORTknife.com, at the company’s Portland factory store and through select online and culinary retailers.

The details: - The Carving Fork is machined from American 4100 series alloy steel, hardened and tempered for durability. - The fork uses extra-thick 1/4-inch steel and a tapered, resharpenable point for stability and control. - The 9-inch Carving Knife is drop-forged from a single piece of 52100 carbon steel. - The knife has an integral bolster and end cap. - STEELPORT’s differential heat treatment brings the cutting edge to 65 HRC for edge retention. - The blade has a dual-toned coffee-patina finish, a fully rounded spine and a seamless transition from handle to bolster. - Both pieces use Oregon Big Leaf Maple Burl handles that are resin stabilized and hand-shaped. - The knife and fork are handcrafted in Portland, Oregon with all U.S.-sourced materials. - Each knife carries STEELPORT’s lifetime warranty and SharpForever™ free sharpening for life service. - The walnut presentation box is meant for display, storage and passing the set down to future generations. - Optional custom engraving positions the box as a personalized gift for holidays, weddings, anniversaries and other milestones. - STEELPORT said the set is suited to prime rib, brisket, roasts, turkey and holiday ham, plus grill-side carving, lifting large cuts and serving from a roasting pan or smoker.

Between the lines: - The product combines utility and presentation in a category where carving forks are often treated as an accessory rather than a core tool. - Founder and CEO Ron Khormaei framed the launch as a continuation of the company’s focus on high-performance knives with iconic design, functional detail and local craftsmanship. - The company is leaning on its Oregon manufacturing story and heirloom branding to make the set feel giftable as well as practical.

What's next: - STEELPORT is positioning the carving set as a companion to its Steak Knife Set and other kitchen essentials. - The product is likely to show up most during holiday gatherings, special dinners and milestone-gift occasions. - The company will continue selling through its direct-to-consumer site, factory store and retail partners.

The bottom line: - STEELPORT is turning a holiday table staple into a premium, made-in-Portland heirloom product with a high-end price and lifetime support.
