Cleaver Sharpening by Blade Medic
About Cleavers
Cleavers are robust kitchen tools designed for heavy-duty tasks such as chopping through bones and dense meat. These knives are characterized by their large, rectangular blades that provide the heft and leverage needed for powerful cutting and chopping actions.
Design and Purpose
Cleavers are characterized by their:
- Blade Length: Typically ranging from 6 to 12 inches.
- Blade Shape: A wide, rectangular blade with a straight edge, designed for delivering powerful, precise cuts.
- Handle: Sturdy and ergonomically designed to provide a secure grip, ensuring safety and control during use.
This design makes the cleaver ideal for tasks such as splitting meat, chopping vegetables, and crushing garlic.
Typical Cutting Edge Angle
The cutting edge angle of a cleaver is essential for its performance in heavy-duty tasks. Most cleavers have a blade edge angle between 25 and 35 degrees. This steeper angle provides the durability and strength needed to withstand the impact of chopping through bones and dense materials.
| Knife Type | Edge Angle |
|---|---|
| Butcher's Cleaver | 35 degrees |
| Vegetable Cleaver | 25 degrees |
