What Are Meat Cleaver Knives?

Meat cleavers are strong kitchen tools. They cut meat and bones. They have a wide, rectangular blade. This blade gives them weight, stability, and sharpness. Cleavers are for heavy-duty kitchen work.

Struggle with Tough Cuts? Get the Best Cleaver Knife Today!

At True Knife, we know you need reliable tools. This is true for busy home kitchens and pro settings. We created a top collection of handcrafted cleaver knives. Each knife delivers strength, precision, and steady results. They make tough cuts easy.

Every Knife Comes with a Leather Cover

Every cleaver knife includes a custom leather sheath. These sheaths store your knife safely. They also travel well. They look good too. Each sheath has snap locks and belt loops. Your cleaver is ready for the kitchen, BBQ, or any cooking adventure.

What Makes Our Butcher Cleavers Ideal for Chopping Meat?

Our handmade butcher cleavers are perfect for chopping meat. They have heavy builds and balanced full-tangs. Their edges stay sharp. We forge each blade by hand. We use high-carbon steel or beautiful Damascus steel. They cut through tough meat, sinew, and bone cleanly. You use less effort.

Why Do Some Meat Cleavers Have a Hole in the Blade?

Some meat cleavers have a hole near the top. This hole has two uses. It helps you hang the knife for storage. It also gives you more grip. This means better control when cutting tough meat or thick vegetables.

Care & Maintenance Tips

Proper care keeps your cleaver knife sharp. It stays reliable for years.

  • Sharpening: Sharpen your blade often. Use a wet whetstone. Hold the knife at a 30-degree angle. Move it back and forth smoothly. Do this on both sides.

  • Cleaning: Hand wash your cleaver only. Use mild dish soap and warm water. Never use harsh detergents. Never put it in a dishwasher. This can badly damage the blade and handle.

  • Drying: Dry your cleaver right away. Use a soft cloth. This stops rust or corrosion.

  • Storage: Always use the included leather sheath. Or, store it on a magnetic knife strip. You can also put it in a knife drawer with blade protection.
