Fort Worth, Texas – April 25th, 2024 – One of the earliest tools mankind ever produced was to assist in hunting and butchering. While the times have changed, the tools remain. To this day, we need cleavers, chef’s knives, paring knives, etc. For those hunting or camping, having a set of quality knives suited for butchering and preparing meals in the field is essential. Not only does it improve the overall experience, but it also becomes a useful skill. These skills don’t just end in the woods. They follow someone home and become a staple in the everyday kitchen. Butchering and food preparation tools are used in the wild and at home.
TRUE respects culinary preparation’s roots with the PrimalForge line of knives. Each knife has a rustic finish and design that can be used in the kitchen or carried into the field. Currently featuring four proven knife styles, the PrimalForge lineup is made with 5Cr15MoV steel for excellent edge retention and ease of sharpening. All the knives in this lineup are made with full tang construction and finished with an ergonomic, real Monzo wood handle that resists water. A hammer-forged texture is added to the upper sides of the blade, which not only adds an aesthetic flare but also functions by resisting stuck and difficult-to-remove foods.
Each knife comes with a durable and functional wax-treated canvas sheath. Its style harkens back to woodsman times when sheathes were handmade. A snap enclosure and PU leather strap quickly secure a knife in place.
True Tools & Blades PrimalForge Cleaver – MSRP $49.99
Sectioning meat and cutting through bone requires something with girth and heft. The flat geometry of the edge makes the Cleaver a perfect option for sectioning game and reducing portion sizes that may contain bone or thicker flesh. It measures 12.69″ overall and is the largest of the PrimalForge collection.

True Tools & Blades PrimalForge Chopper – MSRP $49.99
When heavy cuts need to be made, nothing beats a chopper. The blade edge is nearly straight and makes up most of the 11.48″ overall length. Well-weighted force can be applied to the motion of the Chopper to split food or break through harder elements seamlessly. It’s not the best option for thick bone but can handle nearly everything else.

True Tools & Blades PrimalForge Waxed Canvas Roll – MSRP $39.99
Carrying all knives in separate sheathes is silly – the likelihood of losing one or forgetting it at a campsite increases. The Canvas Knife Roll puts all the knives in one place, ready for use. A durable weather-resistant wax coating prevents moisture from sneaking in and matches the coatings used on the standard sheaths. Keeping the design standard, a PU leather strap and snap closure keep the reinforced knife slots securely in place.
