A Curved Cleaver That Chops Through Anything
Some kitchen jobs need more than a chef's knife: thick cuts of meat, bones, a hard pumpkin. This hand-forged cleaver has a heavy, curved blade from tip to heel and a warm rosewood handle, so it chops with power and still feels balanced in the hand. Tough, aggressive and razor-sharp, it is the knife you reach for when the job is big.
Why a cleaver
The jobs an ordinary knife struggles with
The blade
Forged from one thick piece of steel
The blade is forged from a single thick piece of 7Cr17MoV (molybdenum vanadium) stainless steel, chosen for its hardness and a long-lasting, better cutting edge, with a hardness of HRC 60+.
Its curved shape runs all the way from tip to heel, which gives you a powerful, versatile rocking chop, unlike any straight knife. The blade carries an etched tiger and bamboo design that makes every cleaver look like a collector's piece.
In the kitchen
Meat, bones and hard vegetables
It is made to hack through hard meat and bones, and it cuts sturdy vegetables cleanly. Use it for rough cuts of meat, chopping squash or cabbage, or breaking down a whole chicken.
The full-tang build, with the steel running through the whole handle, keeps it strong and nicely balanced.
The handle
Rosewood and polished brass
The ergonomically shaped rosewood handle feels warm and gives a secure, confident grip. Polished brass mounts finish it off.
- Rosewood handle: a comfortable, premium feel.
- Polished brass mounts: a classic finish.
- Finger hole in the blade: an extra hold point for messy work.
