Bespoke Post is a men’s subscription box that I've found is really great for anyone. They offer a new selection of curated boxes each month and allow you to choose the one you like best. The included items range from clothing to DIY kits, to lifestyle, to home and everything in between so that there is always something for everyone. This subscription was one of the first ones I lusted after when reading MSA long ago so I’m overjoyed to be reviewing it every month now!
This is a review of the "Filet" box which is still available.
My Subscription Addiction pays for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

Bespoke Post "Filet" Review
As with all Bespoke Post boxes, Filet came with a single info card. The front has a nice glamour shot of the two items while the back gives an overview.
The knives came with plastic sheaths inside heavy paper sheaths, cinched so that they wouldn't slip off in transit.
Material 8" Knife in Almost Black - Retail Value $75.00
The larger of the two knives from this box is eight inches and perfect for standard chopping. This chef's knife is the size I use the most whether I am chopping Green Chef veggies or a hunk of cheese for a charcuterie tray. It's made with three layers of cryogenically-tempered Japanese steel and a stain-resistant composite handle. I chose the "almost black" color which has a white stripe near the blade and has a stainless end with Material's "M" logo stamped into it. The knife is incredibly handsome to look at and the blade has a unique design that has a sort of drippy look to the one side of the blade. It's incredibly sharp and cuts right through anything I'm ready to cook up or eat with ease. It has a wonderful weight and just feels solid in my hand.
Material Almost 4" Knife in Almost Black - Retail Value $50.00
The second knife is another useful 3.5" size that they call the "almost 4-inch" knife. It has the same Japanese steel and composite handle as the eight-incher with a little more control. The paring knife is best used for peeling or smaller jobs that you may not need a bigger knife for. I'd be happy to keep this out on a plate of food without feeling embarrassed since it is so nice to look at.
Verdict: Both knives from my Bespoke Post box seem sturdy as heck and are incredibly sharp. I love the way they look and feel and have no doubt they'll last me a long time. Quite an upgrade from my Ikea knives... especially for a duo that has a retail of $125.00.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? You bet- Filet is still available in two colors!
