How to use a forged cleaver for chopping meat?

Start with a firm cutting surface and grip the cleaver by the handle, letting its weight do the work. Use a gentle rocking motion to chop through bones or thick cuts—precision and force come from proper balance, not brute strength.

Is this stainless steel cleaver suitable for daily kitchen prep?

Absolutely. The triple-riveted handle and handcrafted German blade make this cleaver ideal for everyday use—whether you're splitting ribs or prepping vegetables.

What makes the Meridian Elite cleaver one of the best meat cleavers for kitchen use?

It’s the combination of high-carbon forged steel, polished 15° edge, and a durable ergonomic handle—all handcrafted in Germany and backed by a lifetime warranty.
