Description: Forge to Table was started by chef Noah Rosen. Their knives are hand forged by a 3rd generation blacksmith in China. Forge to Table knives bring an affordable, yet quality option to the world of culinary knives.
The classic cleaver is the most widely used knife across China. Unlike European cleavers, a Chinese cleaver of this style is crafted for balance and performance akin to a chef's knife than a heavy butcher’s cleaver. Prepare to be astounded while this beastly-looking blade finely minces and dices while remaining comfortable to use for an entire kitchen shift. The subtle curvature of the blade allows for smooth transitions from dicing to rocking-chopping. For durability, this blade's tang runs through the entire length of the handle. The even weight distribution puts the power where you need it for any chopping task -- across the entire edge.
The Classic Chinese Cleaver is hand forged from premium 4116 stainless steel made by ThyssenKrupp in Germany. The balance of carbon and chromium content give it a high degree of corrosion resistance and impressive physical characteristics of strength and edge holding. Retention in actual cutting tests exceed blades made of 420 and 440 series stainless steels. The blacksmith's kurouchi finish helps food release from the side of the blade.
The contoured handle is made from African padauk (Pterocarpus soyauxii) with a metal ferrule. It is comfortable for both right and left handed users. This handle, with its full length tang will hold up extremely well in the harsh environment of either a professional or home kitchen. Like other kitchen knives, this knife should not be put in a dishwasher.
The knife is shipped in a wood display box featuring Forge to Table's logo.
