This cleaver or bone chopping knife makes a great gift for anyone who likes to cook or wants something stylish for their kitchen. This XINZOU knife is made from a combination of two different steels which bring different benefits.
The blade features a 7Cr17MoV steel as the core of the blade. This core acts as the primary cutting edge and the powder steel used has a high carbon content in addition to vanadium and niobium. These combine to form a steel that is very hard, which helps form better edges, in addition to being rust and wear resistant.
The 7Cr17MoV steel core is vacuum treated to a hardness of 56-58 HRC on the Rockwell scale. This allows for a blade that is built for heavier cutting. A super sharp, hard edge would blunt and chip easily when used on bone. Nakiri Knife A softer, durable edge will stand up to the impacts of cutting bone or hard materials.
For additional rust resistance, the core is sandwiched between two pieces of SUS410 Stainless Steel. Each side has been folded repeatedly to create the Damascus pattern and 33-layers of steel. These layers help create strength in the blade while producing a beautiful design on the sides of the blade.
The areas closest to your hands have been rounded off for a better experience. Without these sharp corners you will be able to use the blades comfortably for long periods. The handle is also designed for a more natural grip to avoid discomfort.
The handle material is made from Olive Wood and features a flower design made from copper rivets. The fine grain of the wood and the simple design of the flower offset the design of the Damascus blade.
This blade is best used for cutting bone or other hard that can damage other blades. The 7 inch blade allows you to power through bone and other tough materials by a combination of its weight and blade shape. Leave your bone chopping tasks to this cleaver.
After using this knife, be sure to hand wash and dry them, especially after using them with acidic foods like lemons or tomatoes. This will help keep the knife looking good and will help prevent corrosion.
