For each job in the kitchen, it's important to use the right kind of knife. Unlike heavy cleavers used for butchering, the 8" Wusthof Pro Chinese Cleaver is lighter in weight with a thinner blade. With plenty of width for chopping through large vegetables including cabbage, lettuce and squash, plus boneless meats, the 8" cleaver is ideal for quick, efficient kitchen prep. The tapered cutting edge on each side of the cleaver ensures seamless, effortless slicing without a heavy drag when preparing stir-fries, chicken and fish dishes and vegetable trays. This knife was not designed for use with meat still containing bones; using this product with bones or joints may damage the blade.
