German Silver Cleaver 168mm

From Austrian bladesmith Martin Huber, elegantly dressed in ancient bog and accents of German Silver with which to wield a weighted, powerful blade with thin edge and tall bevels for versatility in the kitchen, this is the German Silver Cleaver. Standing 80mm tall and balancing about two inches in front of the heel to allow gravity and momentum to do their share of the work, the blade is forged by hand from a five layer formula of wrought iron, German Silver (also known as nickel silver) and 1.2519 high carbon steel for the hard, razor-sharp cutting edge. Especially thin at said edge with superb geometry and power behind it, this knife is not only beautiful, it is guaranteed to provide boundless pleasure at the cutting board by moving through ingredients with a buttery smoothness. The blade’s rounded spine, and etched and polished finish, combined with a subtle, welcomed taper to the handle which boasts wonderful detailing including a carved back face, give this one-of-a-kind kitchen tool the full treatment; art and function for the pro chef and home cook alike.
