Each knife is hand-forged in Portland, Oregon from premium 52100 carbon steel and undergoes STEELPORT’s proprietary differential heat treatment for a razor-sharp, long-lasting edge at 65 HRC. The spine remains softer for added durability and flexibility. The handle is crafted from resin-stabilized Oregon Big Leaf Maple Burl, contoured for comfort and stability.
All materials are 100% U.S.-sourced, and every knife is built with full-tang construction for strength and balance.

The STEELPORT 4” Paring Knife is designed for a high level of maneuverability and application. A paring knife is an essential tool and the second most frequently used knife in the kitchen after a chef knife.
The smallest knife in the STEELPORT lineup, our team designed the 4” Paring Knife to perfectly complement the STEELPORT 8″ and 6″ Chef Knife, using the same materials, handcrafted methods and rigorous attention to detail.
It’s a perfect choice for any “minimalist” who enjoys a tool that can multitask. Its unique shape and size allows the 4” Paring Knife to perform many functions of a petty or utility knife as well, from preparing smaller produce like shallots and garlic, to light precision butchering tasks such as processing small game birds and trimming fat.
Blade Length: 4 inches.
Overall Length: Approx. 8 inches.
Blade Thickness: Varies with hand-forging; optimized for precision work.
Handle: Contoured Oregon Big Leaf Maple Burl.
Hand-wash and dry immediately after each use. Do not soak or place in a dishwasher. Apply the STEELPORT Blade Oil as needed to protect the carbon steel from oxidation.
Store in a knife block or sheath to preserve the edge. Sharpen as required—STEELPORT’s SharpForever™ program offers free sharpening for life.
SteelPort Knife Co. crafts American-forged carbon steel kitchen knives in Portland, combining premium materials with traditional craftsmanship for lifelong performance.
