Carbon Steel Cleaver

A great addition to any butcher shop or commercial kitchen, this 6" Cleaver is a vital knife for big jobs. Crafted with a heavy-duty 6" high-carbon steel blade that is strong but not too heavy to swing, this well-balanced knife effectively handles large cuts of meat and other tough cuts. The durable, tempered and individually ground blade will smoothly cut through skin, cartilage, and bone with ease. This versatile cutting tool can also be used for crushing garlic, slicing vegetables, or chopping herbs.  The Rosewood handle with a secured grip and riveted design will fit comfortably in your hand as you tackle food preparation tasks.

• Care Instructions: To protect the edge of your knife, store it in a knife rack or holder where it will never touch other utensils. Never store knives in a drawer. Hand wash, rinse, and dry your knives immediately after you finish using them. Never let carbon steel knives rest with debris on them and never let your knives air dry. Doing so will all but guarantee that they'll rust. You may force a carbon steel patina by letting your knife soak in vinegar or by rubbing it with mustard, but the value of this approach is the topic of debate. Some advise applying a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to the blade each time you store it to mitigate the effects of oxygen and moisture in the air.
