Where Kitchen Meets Camp.

SPECIAL COLLABORATION

DESIGNED BY HUNTERS FOR HUNTERS

Meet the MKC x Meateater Shedhorn Chef, the latest addition to our collaboration with Steven Rinella, renowned conservationist and host of the Netflix show MeatEater. Named after antlers that were recently dropped from an elk, deer, or any animal with antlers, this knife represents a fresh evolution in culinary tool design – one that blurs the line between outdoor adventure and home cooking.

The Shedhorn Chef embodies Steve's philosophy that great food preparation tools should be welcoming and intuitive, whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting your culinary journey. We've crafted this knife for the modern home cook who demands versatility without intimidation, whether they're prepping meals in their kitchen, camp trailer, or backcountry yurt.

Breaking from traditionally overwhelming or aggressive chef knife designs, the Shedhorn's profile and compact footprint create something different: a knife that feels instantly familiar in hand while maintaining all the capability you'd expect from MKC. Like all our Rinella collaboration pieces, it's designed to feel natural for both experienced cooks and those just learning their way around a kitchen.

It’s the perfect combo of utility and comfort, equally at home in your kitchen drawer and travel kit and ready to tackle whatever culinary adventure awaits.

INTUITIVE BLADE DESIGN

The Shedhorn features a shallow continuous curve and dropped tip that feels natural in hand from the first use.

The blade’s profile is designed to work with both rocking and chopping motions, accommodating several cutting styles. The lowered tip provides enhanced control for detailed work while maintaining a friendly, approachable appearance that won’t intimidate less experienced users.

MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL BLADE

As a cryogenically heat-treated stainless steel, MagnaCut provides the perfect blend of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.

Unlike other stainless steel blades, MagnaCut can be easily resharpened, even by novice knife owners. More wear-resistant than other stainless steels and more corrosion-resistant than carbon steel, MagnaCut is in a class of its own. The black Cerakote finish helps prevent corrosion and reduces friction when cutting.

Learn more about MagnaCut stainless steel from its creator, Larrin Thomas.

REFINED G10 HANDLE

The G10 handle scales are shaped for comfort during extended prep sessions while providing excellent grip security in any condition.

Whether your hands are dry, wet, or food-slicked, the G10 material maintains its grippy texture. The handle’s ergonomic design works naturally for various grip styles, from a traditional handle grip to a precise pinch grip for detailed cutting tasks.

A COMPACT POWERHOUSE

At a more modest length than traditional chef’s knives, the Shedhorn is designed for maximum utility in minimal space.

Perfect for cramped countertops or camp kitchens, this knife proves that bigger isn’t always better. With its just 6 1/2” blade, the reduced footprint of the Shedhorn maintains all the capability you need for daily meal prep while being more maneuverable in tight spaces. Whether you’re dicing vegetables or slicing meat, the Shedhorn handles it all with confidence and control.

EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH

Each Shedhorn Chef comes with a USA-made in Montana custom MKC Kydex sheath.

The sheath features built-in retention pressure for secure blade storage. Perfect for safely keeping your knife in a drawer or packing it for travel, but ready quickly when you need it.

Free Sharpening For Life & Beyond

Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.

MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge.

While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance. Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.

Fantastic Chef Knife

This is great sized kitchen knife, filling a great niche between a full size chef knife and smaller task specific knives. Love that it can sheath it and take it with me.

New favorite knife

Great size, smaller than the standard 8" chefs knife allows use for finer tasks. insanely sharp. Cleans up quickly, great grip.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate the support Jim!

Shedhorn Chef

I love this knife. It is the perfect chef's knife, the blade length fits a gap that is not filled by other kitchen knife manufacturers, the handle width is very comfortable and the steel is exceptional.

My new favorite kitchen knife

Saw the Mike Rowe episode and decided I'd give it a try. This is now my go to for kitchen prep. Incredibly sharp and comfortable in the hand. I'll be buying more of the kitchen knives when they become available.

Keep up the good work. Go America.
