The Cooking Guild’s Latest Launch: The Bara Forge Series

The Bara Forge Series is our latest small-batch release, created for cooks who want more than just another kitchen knife. Each blade is hand forged using 3-layer San Mai construction, combining strength, sharpness, and long-lasting performance in a blade built for serious daily use.

Finished with stabilized burl wood octagonal handles and a rose mosaic pin, every Bara Forge knife carries its own unique character. The result is a collection that feels refined, balanced, and powerful in hand — made for precision prep, clean slicing, and confident cooking.

Bara Forge 7" Nakiri

The Nakiri is built for clean, precise vegetable prep. Its flat edge profile makes it ideal for chopping herbs, slicing onions, dicing root vegetables, and powering through daily prep with control. If you cook with a lot of fresh produce, this is the blade you’ll reach for again and again.

Bara Forge 5" Paring Knife

Small, sharp, and highly controlled, the Bara Forge Paring Knife is made for detail work. Use it for peeling, trimming, scoring, garnishing, and any task where a full-size chef knife feels too large.

Bara Forge 9" Kiritsuke

The Kiritsuke brings striking presence and precision to the kitchen. Its long profile and angled tip make it excellent for slicing proteins, trimming fish, cutting vegetables, and handling refined prep work with confidence.

Bara Forge 9" Gyuto

The Gyuto is the Japanese-inspired workhorse of the collection. With extended reach and a smooth slicing profile, it’s perfect for meat, fish, vegetables, and larger prep jobs where flow and control matter.

Bara Forge 8" Chef Knife

The 8" Chef Knife is your all-purpose kitchen workhorse. From chopping vegetables to slicing proteins and mincing herbs, this is the everyday blade designed to handle almost anything on the board.

Bara Forge 7" Santoku

The Santoku is built for balance, speed, and everyday precision. Its shorter, controlled profile makes it ideal for clean chopping, slicing, and dicing — especially for cooks who want a lightweight blade that feels effortless in hand.

Bara Forge Trinity Set

The Trinity Set brings together three of the most useful blades in the Bara Forge Series, giving you a complete foundation for daily cooking. It’s the best value way to experience the collection and upgrade your prep with a matching set of hand-forged blades.

Built In Small Batches. Made To Last.
