How does this cleaver handle bone and tough cuts?

The cleaver’s reinforced spine and concentrated forward balance make it suitable for chopping through pork ribs and bone-in beef without excessive flex. Its robust body absorbs impact and transfers force efficiently, reducing user strain during heavy-duty tasks.

• Thicker blade spine for increased durability
• Forward balance targets chopping force
• Designed for hard-skinned vegetables and bone-in meat

What makes the blade steel and edge stand out?

TUO selected high-carbon German stainless steel and applied vacuum heat treatment plus nitrogen cold treatment to raise hardness to HRC 56 ±2. Skilled blacksmiths then finish each edge by hand with a traditional Honbazuke three-step process for a precise 18-degree bevel per side.

• High-carbon German stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Heat-treated for improved hardness and edge retention
• Hand-polished Honbazuke edge for exceptional sharpness

Is the handle comfortable and secure during chopping?

The ergonomically contoured pakkawood handle is shaped for a comfortable grip and longer use without fatigue. Its distinctive tan-and-black color adds visual flair while providing a tactile, non-slip surface for controlled, safe cuts.

• Ergonomic shape reduces hand strain
• Pakkawood construction combines durability with warmth
• Stylish color contrast inspired by tiger-fur tones

What care does this butcher knife require to stay in top condition?

To preserve the blade and handle, hand wash and dry immediately after use and avoid prolonged exposure to acidic ingredients. Periodic honing and professional sharpening as needed will maintain the 18-degree edge and extend the knife’s life.

• Hand wash only — no dishwashers
• Dry immediately to prevent moisture damage
• Hone regularly; sharpen professionally when necessary
