FAQ

Is this cleaver for bones?

It’s a chef’s cleaver for vegetables and boneless proteins. not a heavy bone cleaver. For cartilage and joints. use controlled pressure; avoid striking hard bone.

How does the hammered finish help?

The dimpled surface creates tiny air pockets that reduce sticking. so sliced squash. potatoes. and meats release more easily.

What’s the maintenance routine?

Hand wash and dry after use. Touch up periodically on a fine stone; when needed. do a full sharpening sequence. Accessories and stones are available from our collections linked above.
