ELEGANT SERIES (B38L)
7"
3.0 Stars  |  1 Review

A heavy-duty bone chopper built for splitting carcasses, cleaving small bone-in joints, and sectioning shanks. The 178mm blade is forged from 67 layers of Damascus over a 10Cr15CoMoV core, hardened to 60±2 HRC, and set in a full-tang Linen Micarta handle. This is a meat-and-bone cleaver, not a vegetable cleaver.

DESCRIPTION

Reach for this when you're breaking down a whole chicken and need to split the carcass clean through the rib joint, or when a bone-in lamb shoulder is standing between you and Sunday dinner. The 7-inch Butcher's Cleaver is built to cleave, not slice. Heavy spine, short blade, all the weight where you need it.

Built for the Joint

A bone chopper lives or dies on its mass. This one carries a thick, heavy spine that drives the edge through cartilage and small bones with a single confident stroke, so you're not sawing and bruising the meat. The short 7-inch profile keeps the blade controllable over a cutting board, and the full-tang construction means every gram of that weight sits behind your grip, not out at the tip.

Damascus Cladding, Hardened Core

The core is 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless, vacuum heat-treated to 60±2 HRC. That hardness is rare on a bone knife for a reason: it takes a keen edge and holds it through a pile of chicken carcasses, where softer cleavers roll and dent. Wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus cladding for chip resistance on the shoulder of the blade, where most of the impact lands. The linen Micarta handle won't loosen with repeated heavy strokes, and it grips whether your hands are dry or wet with juices.
