Because of its blade’s unique metal; a rare Japanese steel known as AUS-10 steel, this exotic cleaver sits proudly as the flagship of our cleaver lineup. AUS-10 steel is known to have properties that not only make it resistant to abrasive damages, but that also give it unusually good cutting abilities when honed. More specifically, the surface of AUS-10 steel is covered in thousands of tiny divots, created during the cladding process, which form small air pockets that ultimately reduce friction when cutting. This knife is the perfect tool for trimming and chopping large amounts of veg or meat at high speeds with great precision, and will undoubtedly be a long lasting companion.

Nice balance, nice blade!
