180 mm "Muirhead" Boning

JMC-MUI01

bladesmith: Chopp


The Muirhead is named for Rodney Muirhead, a longtime presence in Portland’s barbecue scene. He approached Jamison with the custom knife request that became one of Jamison’s longest-running and best-selling patterns. The knife is a thank-you to Rodney, but also to the larger community that made it possible. Portland has a long tradition of cooks supporting makers and makers supporting cooks, and the Muirhead is part of that exchange. Its rigid, narrow blade provides leverage and control when cutting through tough meat and connective tissue, making it especially well suited to breaking down larger cuts of meat and trimming brisket.

Jamison Chopp

Jamison Chopp grew up making furniture and considered pursuing it as a career after college, until he discovered knifemaking — a craft that wove together his interests in both wood and metalwork. After apprenticing at Carter Cutlery, where he mastered traditional Japanese lines, shapes, and patterns, Jamison opened his own shop before eventually rejoining his former colleagues at Acre Knife.

At Acre, Jamison lets organic patterns of forged steel speak for themselves. “I try to find beauty and refinement in simplicity instead of complexity. There’s no detail about a knife that I don’t pour myself into creatively. I’ve never been obsessed with perfection; I want you to look at my knives and know that they’re handmade.”
