7" Chinese Cleaver - Master Series (B30)

Reach for this when the cutting board is covered in cabbage. Shred a whole napa into thin ribbons for dumplings, work through a quarter of red cabbage for coleslaw, or scoop a pile of diced onion straight off the board into a hot pan using the broad flat blade as a spatula. No other knife does that last part as naturally.

The Broad Blade Advantage

A 7-inch Chinese cleaver sits wider than any chef knife or santoku, and that width is exactly the point. You can push-cut through dense vegetables with the full height of the blade face guiding each slice, keeping your knuckles clear of the board even through fast repetitive work. The flat profile also means it keeps full contact through the stroke, so your cabbage ribbons come out even rather than tapered. The 10Cr15CoMoV core is wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus and vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC, so the edge stays sharp through a long session of vegetable prep without needing a honing rod between tasks.

Figured Sycamore, Full-Tang Build

The figured sycamore handle has a dense rippled grain that looks different on every piece. It's comfortable in a full-hand grip whether you're working fast on herbs or going slower through a dense wedge of pumpkin. One solid piece of steel runs from the tip of the blade through to the butt of the handle, so the weight sits right on your pinch grip and the broad blade doesn't tip forward on you.
