THREE SPECIALTY FEATURES, ONE 5-INCH BLADE

High-carbon German steel

Full tang with ergonomic handles

Ultra Sharp

FREE & FAST SHIPPING

Most kitchens don't own a real cheese knife — they just use whatever blade is closest when the wedge comes out of the fridge. That works for a wedge of cheddar, badly for everything else. Soft cheese like brie smears across the blade and across the cutting board. Hard cheese like parmesan resists a smooth edge and chips instead of slicing. Semi-firm cheeses like gouda stick to the blade and require a finger-flick after every cut. The dedicated cheese knife solves all three problems in one tool. The serrated edge cuts cleanly through soft cheeses with tooth contact instead of pressure (no smearing). The hollow cutouts in the blade face create air gaps that prevent hard and semi-firm cheese from clinging (no sticking). The pronged tip lifts each slice off the board and transfers it to the plate, the board, or the recipient's hand in one motion. Forged from high-carbon German steel, hand-finished, set into a triple-riveted Pakkawood handle with full-tang construction. Pairs naturally with the 5-Piece Cheese Knife Set if you want a full charcuterie kit, or stands alone as the one specialty tool that turns weekly cheese into something worth doing right. Lifetime warranty.

All Cutluxe knives are forged from high-carbon German steel — rust-resistant, impact-tough, and precision-tapered to a razor-sharp 14–16° edge. 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. To keep your knife performing at its best: Hand-wash only — dishwashers damage the edge and handle over time Dry immediately after washing to prevent moisture build-up Hone regularly with a honing rod to keep the edge aligned between sharpenings Store on a magnetic strip, in a knife roll, or in a block — never loose in a drawer Use a wooden or plastic cutting board; glass and ceramic surfaces dull the blade

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

Do I really need a dedicated cheese knife if I have a regular knife?

Depends on how often you eat cheese that isn't pre-sliced from a supermarket pack. If you buy whole wedges of brie, gouda, parmesan, blue, or any soft-ripened cheese — yes, the right knife makes the difference between a clean slice and a smeared mess. A regular chef knife compresses soft cheese and gets stuck to hard cheese; both are annoying enough that most people stop trying. It's a small purchase that quietly changes how often you put out a cheese board. Once it's in the drawer, you'll find more occasions for it than you expected.

What do the holes in the blade actually do?

They prevent sticking. When you slice through a dense or semi-firm cheese like gouda or aged cheddar, the cut surface adheres to the flat face of a regular knife — same principle as a wet glass on a tabletop, just with cheese. The hollow cutouts break that contact by introducing air pockets between the blade face and the cheese. The result is each slice drops off the knife instead of clinging to it, which means no finger-flicking the slice loose, no smashed wedges, no awkward pause between cuts. Doesn't affect anything else about the knife's function — purely a non-stick mechanism.

Is this the same as a 5″ Serrated Utility Knife?

Same blade length and similar serration, but different tool. The 5″ Serrated Utility is a generalist — built for sandwiches, citrus, sourdough, tomatoes, and yes, cheese in a pinch. The 5″ Cheese Knife adds two cheese-specific features the utility knife doesn't have: the hollow cutout blade (non-stick on hard cheese) and the pronged tip (for picking up and serving slices). If your priorities are bread and sandwiches: serrated utility. If you build cheese boards more than three times a year: cheese knife. If you do both regularly and want the specialty tool for each: own both. They're different jobs, despite the similar size.

How do I take care of this?

Hand-wash, towel-dry, store on a magnetic strip or in a block. The dishwasher kills the serrated edge faster than a smooth edge — the teeth catch on detergent residue and bend. Pay extra attention to drying the hollow cutouts after washing; water sits in them longer than on a flat blade. The serrated edge can't be honed on a rod the way a smooth edge can. When it eventually dulls (years, not months), it needs a tapered ceramic sharpener or a professional service. Most home cooks never have to do this — the edge holds for the life of the knife under normal use.

Is this a good gift, and what's the return situation?

It's one of the most-overlooked gift picks in the kitchen lineup. Useful, recognizable, and specific enough that the recipient knows you put thought into it. Pairs naturally with a wooden cheese board, a bottle of wine, or the 5-Piece Cheese Knife Set for a more elaborate present. Lifetime warranty covers manufacturing defects for the original owner. 30-day money-back covers everything else — wrong fit, change of mind, doesn't suit the kitchen. The knife goes back without an argument, no restock fees.

Cutluxe 5” Cheese Knife – Made for Boards, Built for Work

Trusted by Pit Pros and Kitchen Veterans

Every pitmaster knows the job isn’t finished when the meat’s off the grill. The next move? The knife you use for cheese. The Cutluxe 5” Cheese knife was made to handle those post-BBQ details with the same precision as your brisket slicer.

This blade is forged from high-carbon steel, hand-sharpened, and built to stay razor sharp. We use steel that’s designed to take punishment — from picnic tables to prep kitchens. No chipping, no bending. Just pure steel performance.

Unlike softer alloys, our hardened steel holds an edge longer. That means more service, fewer sharpenings, and more reliable slicing whether you’re at home or on the road. The Cutluxe blade is what happens when pro-grade steel meets real-world BBQ needs.

Inside the kitchen or outside by the smoker, this steel blade delivers. It balances weight, edge retention, and control in one compact design. Not too long, not too light — just right.

This blade isn’t just strong — it’s also sleek. The brushed steel finish not only looks pro but also resists corrosion and stains. With the right care, this knife will outlast cheaper options and serve you season after season.

Built for All Cheeses, Soft or Tough

Whether you’re slicing creamy Brie or breaking down aged cheddar, this knife does the job. The holes help prevent soft cheese from sticking. The compact size keeps you in control — on the board or in the field.

The serrated edge gives a clean slice through crumbly textures without pressure. Even semi-hard cheese like gouda cuts cleaner with a serrated knife than a smooth blade. A true BBQ setup isn’t complete without a proper cheese knife.

You’ll want this knife nearby every time you build your board — at home or at camp. If you’re a pit pro, you know one thing: a good serrated edge is non-negotiable when you’re dealing with variety.

In the home kitchen, this tool shines just as much as it does on the competition circuit. The 5-inch build is ideal for anyone who values performance, precision, and simplicity.

Add one to your main kitchen setup and keep a backup knive in your tailgate kit. Or pass a knive to your crew — they’ll appreciate it. This tool is stainless, reliable, and built to handle meat, sides, and alike.

If you’re serious about what you cut, this is the knife to reach for every time.
