Description

The Samura Butcher cleaver is the type of knife SAMURA recommends for chopping meat and bones, and it also portions fish. Its 180 mm blade is made of hand-sharpened AUS-8 stainless steel and set in a curved black TPE handle with a textured grip.

Blade and steel

The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. Hard steel keeps its sharpness for a long time, and at this hardness the edge is still straightforward to restore on a whetstone. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, but you should still wash and dry the cleaver soon after use.

Like every knife in the Butcher series, it is sharpened by hand with a convex edge: the sides of the blade curve gently into the edge instead of meeting in a flat V. SAMURA uses this technique for a durable, even cutting edge. The blade is 180 mm long and 80 mm high.

Handle and balance

The handle is made of black TPE, with the curved shape used across the Butcher series and a textured, non-slip grip. The textured surface helps keep wet hands from slipping, so you can make confident, quick cuts. The cleaver weighs 295 g and measures 308 mm overall.

Care and sharpening

Rinse the cleaver with hot water and wipe it dry before first use. After that, wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the cleaver should not be left in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Store the cleaver in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.

About the Butcher series

SAMURA built the Butcher series around what butchers value most: comfort, safety and efficiency, with manually sharpened AUS-8 stainless steel blades and curved TPE handles for old-school and modern cooks alike. Like all SAMURA knives, this cleaver comes with a 2-year warranty.
