12" Professional Handmade Damascus Steel Chopper Cleaver Knife with Hard Wood Handle

This 12-inch Professional Handmade Damascus Steel Chopper Cleaver Knife combines power, durability, and masterful craftsmanship, making it an essential tool for professional chefs, home cooks, and collectors. Featuring an overall length of 12 inches, the knife has a 7-inch razor-sharp Damascus blade paired with a 5-inch hard wood handle that ensures a comfortable and secure grip. Forged from 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steel, the blade is crafted with 512 true layers that create a stunning Damascus pattern, flowing seamlessly to the edge. At 4 mm thick, the blade is hand ground on both sides and finished with a sleek false edge, delivering precision and strength for heavy-duty chopping and cleaving. Heat-treated for long-lasting performance, the edge maintains a Rockwell hardness of 50–54 HRC, while the spine measures 42–45 HRC, balancing sharpness with toughness. The Damascus layering provides a microscopic saw-blade effect, ensuring the knife stays sharper longer than ordinary blades. 100% handmade and one-of-a-kind, this cleaver offers exceptional cutting power and artistry. Please note, this knife is sold without a leather sheath.
