Blue Super Vegetable Cleaver

192mm veg cleaver in Hitachi stainless san mai with a Blue Super steel core. 

This blade has a thin and darkly etched core with plenty of distal taper and thin edge with a walkschliff style thinner spine. The spine and choil are mirror polished and etched to highlight the core steel sharpened to 4k. 

There is a little etching haze on one bevel as visible in the photos, this is purely aesthetic and adds character to the blade. 

The handle is a stunning piece of stabilised maple burl with a brass heirloom-fit bolster. 

This knife includes free shipping internationally with additional options at checkout.
