Chef's Heavy-Weight Cleaver
This is the cleaver for hacking, chopping, and crushing your way through anything* in your path. 
 
Our Classic Cleaver's badass older sibling. At a whopping 740 grams (or 26 ounces), this blade gets through it all. Cleanly chop a steaming hot peking duck in half in a single blow or split whole chickens for a hearty soups. 

The heft of this blade makes it a specialized tool for professional butchers who want to use the weight to cleave easily through bone, flesh, muscle, animal, vegetable or mineral**.
We first made this blade for a friend who is a professional butcher. We've now got a few extra for anyone else who needs a true kitchen weapon to breakdown their latest kill or pull off a tip to tail BBQ. 
 
*Not for use on people
**this is a joke, please do not try to cleave through a diamond
***This knife is no joke, please use caution
