6.5" cleaver made in France approximately from the 1930s to 50s with carbon steel blade, steel ferrule ring and turned chestnut handle. Blade has a fresh convex edge ready to get to work, there are a few patches of pits on the face of the blade but nothing too disfiguring. 

A handsome old cleaver with a great old stamp. 


6.5x4.25" at widest point of blade 12" overall 13.9oz

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and towel dried soon after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
