Vintage 8" Large Chinese Santoku Cleaver

This 8" version is the larger size of our Chinese Santoku Cleavers. This amazingly strong and versatile knife is your answer to it all! "Chop, cut, crush, slice, dice, trim..... whatever!"

The Vintage Series features an updated ergonomically friendly hand-finished stabilized walnut handle that has a traditional, timeless look and feel. The sleek integrated bolster allows for a traditional or pinch-grip. The brass rivets complement the walnut handle and accent the stainless steel blade.

The Large size has an 8" Blade while the smaller version has a 6" blade. 

LEATHER SHEATHS ARE SOLD SEPARATELY

We also have a SET available of both the LARGE and SMALL cleavers at a discounted price (56562). Check it out here

To protect your cleavers we suggest our American-made and crafted Leather Sheaths from 12oz Wickett and Craig English vegetable-tanned bridle leather. Extra strong Brass Rivets and Snap keep the sheath firmly in place for storage.

As is the nature of handmade goods created from natural materials, you may experience minor variations in shape color, and appearance. These normal variations add character and uniqueness to your handmade leather product.
