175mm San Mai Cleaver — hand forged, precision balanced, and unapologetically bold.
Forged from Aogami 2 and 15N20 with a nickel shim for a vivid, high-contrast San Mai profile, this cleaver delivers surgical edge performance and durable toughness. Blade depth is 85mm with a 2mm spine, giving a confident, stable platform for chopping, portioning, and push-cutting. The vertical cross-peen hammer Tsuchime finish adds tactile grip and a raw, artisan character while subtly breaking up reflected light—functional beauty that tells a story of the forge.
The handle is stabilized crosscut lightning-struck wild cherry—deep, storm-scarred figure enhanced for durability and daily use. Ergonomically shaped for secure control, it balances the blade’s presence with warm, organic complexity.
A one-of-a-kind tool for cooks who demand brutal efficiency wrapped in handcrafted artistry. Crafted in America by jLbladeWerks.
