This a chinese style cleaver, which despite its size, is designed to be an all purpose kitchen knife handling tasks such as chopping, slicing and mincing. Compared to the other cleavers I offer, this knife is much thinner behind the edge and is designed to handle lighter style tasks.

The cleaver is hand forged from a san mai of 52100 high carbon steel and wrought iron with a brute de forge finish. The flat grind has a slight convex at the tip to aid with food release. As with all my knives the spine and the choil are rounded for comfort and the handle features some stabilised beefwood sourced from the Kimberly region of WA and a faux ivory spacer made out of Juma a resin based material. 

Blade Length: 200mm
Handle: 135mm
Overall Length: 350mm
Height at heel: 97mm
Thickness above heel 3.5mm
Thickness mid way: 2.8mm
Thickness 1cm from tip: 2.8mm

This is a high carbon steel knife and as such a little extra care is required. Please refer to my knife care page for more information.
