ZWILLING Cleaver Knife

This 6-inch cleaver is designed for heavy-duty kitchen tasks like chopping through dense vegetables, portioning meats, or crushing garlic. Its forged construction gives it the weight and stability needed for these forceful motions.

Yes, this knife is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the blade's edge and the handle's integrity over the long term, we generally recommend hand washing and drying it promptly.

The fully forged construction means the blade and bolster are crafted from a single piece of steel. This provides superior balance, strength, and durability compared to stamped knives, making it feel more substantial and controlled in your hand.

The ergonomic, curved triple-rivet handle is designed to fit naturally in most hand sizes. The curvature helps provide a secure, comfortable grip, reducing fatigue during repetitive chopping tasks.

The blade is honed for long-lasting sharpness, but like any high-quality kitchen knife, it will eventually need maintenance. Using a honing steel regularly will help keep the edge aligned and sharp between professional sharpenings.
