All our knives are handmade, durable, and unique. This beautiful custom handmade Damascus chopper cleaver knife from Heritage Forge is designed for both professional chefs and kitchen enthusiasts. With an overall length of approximately 12 inches, it features a 7-inch Damascus steel blade and a 5-inch elegant wood handle, perfectly balanced for precision and comfort. The blade is forged from 1095 and 15N20 high steel with 512 true layers, creating a stunning pattern that continues all the way to the cutting edge.
