Is this the same as the chupa knives I bought many years ago. Chupa is no longer in business and these look just like them. Anybody know?

I have never heard of Chupa, I do know you will not be disappointed with the Rada Cutlery. I have the one shown and two slicers. I have recommended them to my friends, they are so happy with theirs also.

Yes, they are the "classic". Although they are not of the quality of the other knives in the set. But then again that's probably to be expected. Still good quality for a steak knife.

I have been using spyderco knives for years and have the trainer for this knife as well, definitely not a fake. I bought one from these guys a year or so ago and it is still in my pocket with a deadly edge.

When I bought mine earlier last year, the knife sent to me was S30V. If anything, it's an upgrade from what is mentioned here.

We purchased knives, forks, and spoons in this pattern sometime during 2013 - sounds like it's a good thing we did all of them then. We use them often. Good luck with finding them.

Yes, they are both the exact same knife. Remember that the handle on this knife is very big. You might not like it if you have small hands.

A search of either leads you to the same knife. The knife is awesome. I own one and have give two as gifts.

The one I received has the newer rough finish. It is a well made knife and case I carry it every day.

The style on the pictures is the same as on the knife. The knife actually has that design.

I got lucky and got one of the old ones with the silver on the outside, although the case-wrapper-sheath is black and had me worried there for a bit. The manufacturer says he is changing them over on a rolling basis. He should make a different SKU number for such an important change. And Amazon should enforce that.

I don't think they are the same, bit I don't know what the differences are. I have had these knives for years and they a still perfectly sharp. I don't see why they wouldn't suit a professional kitchen. I prefer these over my wusthof knives I paid triple for.

Yes, the ones I have are full tang. And yes, they are sturdy, heavy machetes - these things are the real deal. One of my machetes is about 20 years old - abused and used - no rust on it! And the handle rivets are still tight - no wobble of handles at all. The other is about 5 years old, and seems to be as excellent quality as the older one. But the real question you need to ask, is this made in the U.S.A. - the Ontario machetes are U.S.A. made. Hopefully the quality of the new ones is as good as the old ones - you might want to look into the Ontario Knife website. Anyways, the ones I have are awesome - if you do get one maybe do a followup post and tell us if they seem to be as good as I say. Yes, the ones I have are full tang.

they are the same knife. the only differences are the color and the sheath. But i have seen some price differences as well. But as functionality goes they are the same. I choose this one simply because it has a more natural color.

I still have the one that 'I Picked Up' on a training mission at Camp Swift, Bastrop, TX. Just one of the many things I found lost while training. I sharpened one edge just like spetnaz. Still have it in my truck. Along with the U.S. Ontario Machete.

Both of my knives are Kershaw Ken Onions. The serratated Ken Onion I own looks very similar to the Tanto. I would expect the Tanto to be a very good knife! Tom Brennan

I believe all the knives in this set are forged. They all look like the steak knives. As to where these were made, have no clue anymore, threw the packaging away when I decided to keep the knives. They are really good knives, no matter where they were made.
