  • Our take on the Tungsten XL 8.7" Chef’s Knife

    The Tungsten XL is Coolina's oversized take on its original Tungsten chef's knife, about 20% larger with an 8.7-inch hand-forged high-carbon steel blade. It is built for cooks who want a long, heavy blade for slicing large cuts and heavy prep, with a black Kappa wooden handle for balance. Edge retention is strong at 57-58 HRC, but the 2.2 lb weight and carbon steel care make it a demanding tool next to lighter stainless chef's knives. Buyers rate it highly for sharpness and presence, though its size and upkeep suit few everyday cooks.

    • Build qualityPraisedReviewers describe a solid hand-forged feel with a comfortable wooden handle.
    • MaintenanceCriticisedHigh-carbon steel needs drying and oiling, which some owners find fussy.
    • Blade sizeMixedThe long blade suits large cuts but feels unwieldy for small, precise work.

    About the Tungsten XL 8.7" Chef’s Knife

    Questions and answers

    Is the Tungsten XL worth it over the original Tungsten?
    If you regularly cut large roasts or do heavy prep, the extra 20% blade length and weight give more authority. For smaller everyday tasks the original is easier to handle.
    Does the high-carbon blade rust?
    High-carbon steel can rust or stain if left wet. Dry it promptly after washing and oil it occasionally to keep the finish.
    How should I sharpen it?
    Coolina specifies a 30-40° sharpening angle, wider than thin Japanese knives. A whetstone or guided sharpener set to that angle works well.
    Is it too heavy for everyday use?
    At 2.2 lb it is much heavier than a typical chef's knife. It suits deliberate slicing and heavy prep more than long fine chopping.
    What is in the box?
    The knife is sold as a single piece. Coolina notes each knife is custom-made, so dimensions may vary slightly.
    Who is it for?
    Serious home cooks who want a big, hand-forged carbon steel chef's knife and don't mind the weight or upkeep.
