Blade Type

This wild Cleaver/Nakiri Hybrid is a beast! Tipping the scales at 400g, this is a knife for heavy duty work.

Steel Type

Japanese White Steel #1, the purest form in the "Shirogami" (White Paper Steel) series, is highly regarded for its exceptional sharpness and ease of sharpening. With a slightly higher carbon content than White Steel #2, it delivers superior edge retention, but like White 2 cannot be left wet for even short periods of time, otherwise rust spots can occur. If you’re fastidious in your knife maintenance, this knife steel can be extremely rewarding to use.

Recommended Maintenance

Store it in a dry environment using magnetic strips, knife rolls, or sayas. Avoid hitting hard or frozen objects and twisting the blade while cutting. These knives are not dishwasher safe. Clean with hot water and a soft cloth, and dry immediately after use to prevent rust spots on the high carbon steel. For more information please read the blog below.

Introducing

100 Knives

Darren is a Sydney-based maker with a design background and a talent for Damascus forging. We're very proud to be able to offer some of Darren's incredible pieces to our customers! "At 408g and nearly 80mm tall,
this mini cleaver/nakiri is heavy, thick at the spine and built to get sh*t done. The core steel is White Paper 1 (Shirogami 1) and is clad with Wrought Iron and a nickel
shim. The active pattern of the wrought cladding flows up to a smoothly tapered integral bolster, transitioning to a comfy octagonal handle via a black linen micarta spacer. The handle is made from natural ebony."

Knife Care

This knife is made from a high-carbon, semi-stainless steel and will be robust and resistant to rust. While it will not rust quickly like pure carbon, it is still best practice to not leave this knife wet for extended periods as it's stain-less, not stain-none! A light patina (colouration and seasoning of the steel) will still form over time.
