Hatsukokoro Sentan | Chinese Cleaver

This series features a hand-forged carbon steel blade with a Shirogami#2 cor and stainless cladding. The blade has a black kurouchi finish, creating a raw black surface. The edge is thin, and the knife is well-weighted, offering a balanced feel in the hand.
The finish is simple, just as it should be on a classic Chinese cleaver. It is, therefore, not uncommon for the blade to have minor spots on the edge, something that can be polished away with a polishing agent. This is a knife intended to work hard in the kitchen!
This is not a meat cleaver. Its a vegetable knife with a thin edge, ideal for chopping vegetables similar to a nakiri. For tougher tasks, we recommend using a meat cleaver with a thicker edge and a softer steel.
