Traditionally Forged 

  • Following ancient Japanese crafting methodology, this Cleavers blade profile features an interior cutting core forged from a single bar of the finest Japanese VG10 steel available today.

Made to Lasts Several Lifetimes 

  • The VG10 core is then insulated with 73 exterior layers of high-density folded stainless Damascus steel.
  • These alloys, paired with the traditional forging methods, produce incredible edge retention, lifelong durability, and shock-absorbing qualities for heavy impact cleaving.

A Modernized More Fashionable Blade 

  • It’s no surprise that this Cleaver takes over four months to forge.
  • The refining and infusing of the alloys, then repeatedly folding the steel to create the protective exterior layers, and then the intensive multi-step process of tempering and sharpening.
  • Finally, the blade and handle are hand-polished to a mirrored finish, which reveals the beautiful layers of the folded steel and imbues it the knife with a timeless look and feel.
  • Whip this eye-catching beauty out while cooking at your next dinner party, and you’re bound to get some admiration and “knife envy” from your guests.
