Carl Mertens - COUNTRY - cleaver 15 cm

As the name suggests, the cleaver is a massive kitchen tool for cutting as well as chopping or dividing.

The broad, solid blade, the rectangular shape and the fairly wide deduction angle are typical. Not unlike an axe, the chopper chops up large chunks of meat and cuts into smaller bones like ribs or chicken bones.

CAUTION: However, the chopper is not suitable for chopping large bones of game or the like. This type of bone is too massive and would dull the blade or even break it.
