Take your cooking to the next level with this gorgeous Serbian style Damascus steel meat cleaver. Serbian knives are some of the best on the market for successful chopping. The blade of this cleaver is hand forged from a blend of 1095 and 15N20 steel, which have been expertly heated and folded together approximately 280-350 times and then quenched to obtain a Rockwell Hardness rating between 54 and 56. The raindrop pattern adds a beautiful touch to such a powerful knife. This knife is visibly full tang, meaning you can see the blade run all the way through the handle. Two rich brown micarta mounts for the handle are held to the tang by three sturdy metal fixtures. Included with this beautiful piece is an equally beautiful hand tooled genuine leather sheath that features a reddish-brown finish with a blackened border, and provides a snap closure around the handle as well as a belt loop for easy carry. This knife comes well oiled - and it is recommended to polish the knife with a mineral oil from time to time to prevent rusting or corrosion. Please keep in mind when purchasing that the Damascus pattern is completely unique to each and every blade, meaning no two are the exact same.

Care

Please note that real Damascus blades are not rust-proof, so we recommend that you care for the blades with oil after each use
