Perfect for a range of jobs but unlike thicker and softer steel cleavers, this is essentially a chuka bocho designed for primarily for veg prep with a harder, durable 62HRC carbon steel core.
Despite the cleaver name, we don't recommend hacking through bone with this knife and that you consider the use of it more like you would with a gyuto, santoku or nakiri.
Sentan is a H&K brand (the owners of Hatsukokoro) for their knives designed and made in China.
⚠️ CARE NOTE: It is recommended to wash the blade with soap and warm water before the first use.

Our aim is to measure and photograph our products as accurately as possible but due to many items being handmade, finished or using natural materials, there can be minor variance in measurements and things such as blade or wood finishes can vary. We will always endeavour to provide the most accurate measurements, photos and descriptions of our products.
Some measurements such as HRC are provided by manufacturers and should therefore be used as a guide.
