How to use a Japanese vegetable cleaver for optimal results?

Hold the cleaver firmly by the handle, use a rocking motion to slice through vegetables, and maintain a sharp edge by hand washing and regular honing. This technique ensures clean cuts and prolongs blade life.

How to maintain and clean a handcrafted Japanese cleaver?

Hand wash your Japanese chef knife with mild dish soap immediately after use, dry thoroughly, and store in a knife block or magnetic holder. Regular honing keeps the edge sharp, and occasional professional sharpening is recommended.
