Boasting a broad, rectangular blade and a strong, straight edge, cleavers are great for efficient and versatile food preparation.

This Full Tang Cleaver Knife is a wonderfully versatile tool for your kitchen. Starting off with the blade, the knife features 73 individual layers of steel consisting of a centralized core with two protective layers on the outside.
The blade core is made of a 14Cr14MoVNb which mostly features Carbon and Chromium in the mix. This is offset by lower levels of Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Niobium (an alternative to Titanium). This combination is used to ensure that the edge of the blade is as sharp and durable as possible by creating stronger carbides in the steel without using too much of the free Chromium.
The excess Chromium combined with the outer stainless steel layers helps protect the blade from corrosion and rust. This makes it easier to use across a wide variety of foods without the blade oxidizing the moment you put it down. You will still need to wash and dry the blade, but it won’t need to happen as quickly as some other blades with a heavy carbon content.
The inner and outer blade sections are heat treated up to 64 HRC to ensure that the edge is retained. The early to mid-60s on the HRC scale are perfect for razor sharp edges while maintaining a lower risk of chipping.
The edge is 15° on either bevel which is often referred to as the “Golden Angle.” This angle balances sharpness and durability allowing you to cut meats and vegetables easily.
The knife is very durable, featuring a full tang blade. This adds additional support for the handle and allows the blade and handle section to be one solid piece of metal. The Olive wood is meticulously paired with the tang to keep the tang out of sight. This brings elegance to the handle’s performance.
The 7.28 inch Vegetable Cleaver style blade allows you to process large sets of vegetables and is primarily used for dicing, chopping, and slicing. This design is great for those who have a lot of salads or similar dishes to make.
This gorgeous Damascus Vegetable Cleaver is destined to be a favorite for your slicing, dicing and chopping your vegetables, especially the big tougher ones. The best Damascus Vegetable Cleaver is always the one in your kitchen.
