Camp Chef All-Purpose Chef Set - Includes Spatula, Flat-Nosed Spoon, Santoku Knife, Heavy-Duty Tongs & Carrying Case for Outdoor Cooking Equipment - 5 Pieces

My wife and I bought 2 sets of these camp sets to donate to a local Scout troop.The knife on one set broke on the very first night out - we were there watching and there was not horseplay or overly aggressive chopping being done - the shaft of the knife just slide right out of the handle - as you can see in the photo, it broke right before the 1st pin.I contacted Camp Chef regarding this and they said they would send a replacement "as soon as possible" - this was on July 3rd - yet 16 days later, we have not heard anything back from the,I was willing to let this go as a potential flaw in the knife, but now that the customer service department has elected to just ignore us, I am going to post this review to hopefully let others be aware that they may also get a bad set too.The 2nd set was used that same night without issues, but I am carefully keeping my eyes on the set and testing each one after used to see how well it will stand up.

Starting with the case, it is made of a good sturdy fabric (covering what feels like sturdy cardboard) and the seams are well placed. The clips that hold it together are of a good size and snap easily in place; also unsnap with ease. The handle goes across the whole top for added strength. Interior has small mesh pockets where the handles go inside and velcro strap around the neck of the utensil. There is on extra mesh pocket on the end that is very small (chopsticks maybe?) They have to be placed in the order that is pictured! You can't fit them any other way. The knife has a velcro peice to cover the tip in case you lose the little plastic cover they give you, which is likely at my camp site, haha. I would have liked to see another strap or something to cover the blade fully, but there are knife covers you can get for it seperately. Interior has a flap to cover over the top so the utensils aren't banging against eachother. Great idea! Metal scraping on metal stands my hair up on edge.I love that these are metal utensils! Metal is sturdy and not easy to bend. Handles are made of hard plastic, and decent sized. Feels like high heat plastic, but still not leaving it on a hot grill. Tongs and knife have a slightly softer plastic, I suppose for a comfort grip. Tongs have a plastic strip that goes halfway and have a pull lock to keep closed. The spoon has a flat angled edge to get into the corner of the pot. The spatula has sharp edges, be careful, not as sharp as the knife but sharp enough it cut itself through the plastic it came it. The knife has a good sharpness to it and has a good well-balanced weight on the handle.All in all, it is a really good set, especially for the price. I'll let you know if anything happens while camping with it.

Nice little set. Wish the knife was held in differently but besides that it's really well out together. Knifes nice and sharp and the other utensils are a nice add on to anyone wanting to either starting out camping or just looking for adding more to their repertoire.

This set was awesome. The utensils are very high quality. The knife is sharp. And it all comes in a caring case. I was able to put a can opener in the extra slot and put my Coleman silverware set rolled up into the middle of the case. Adjust the cam buckles and the case closes real nice. Now you have all your cooking and eating utensils in one place. What more could you ask for? Seriously.

Serviceable kit for camping or outdoor cooking. Each of the utensils is well made and sturdy. The tongs are well built and not wobbly with a good locking mechanism. The carry case is well thought out and sturdy.
