Questions

Everything You Need to Know

What can the Knifz cleaver cut through?+

Squash, bone-in chicken, thick root vegetables, melons, and anything a standard chef knife bounces off. The weight and thick spine do the work — you guide it.

Is it too heavy for fine work?+

No. The full-tang construction balances the weight forward at the bolster, so the knife feels steady and controlled. It's heavier than a chef knife, but the balance makes it feel lighter in use.

What steel is the blade?+

High-carbon stainless steel, ground to 15 degrees per side and hand-honed. High-carbon steel takes a sharper edge and holds it longer than softer standard stainless.

Does it come with a sheath?+

Yes. Every Knifz cleaver includes a full-grain leather sheath for safe storage.

How do I care for it?+

Hand wash and dry immediately — never the dishwasher. Hone every few uses, sharpen every few months. Wood or composite boards only. Store in the included sheath.

How often should I sharpen?+

Hone every few uses to realign the edge. Full sharpen every three to six months for a home cook. A pull-through sharpener is fine; a whetstone gives a finer edge but takes practice.

What's the handle made of?+

Hardwood with steel rivets, full-tang construction running the full length of the handle. The grip stays secure when wet.

What are the specs?+

Blade: 8 inches. Edge: 15 degrees per side, hand-honed. Steel: high-carbon stainless. Construction: full tang. Handle: hardwood with steel rivets. Includes: leather sheath.

Does it arrive gift-ready?+

Yes. The cleaver ships in its own box with sheath and care card.

How much does it cost?+

The Knifz cleaver is $104.99. Free shipping on orders over $99.

What's the return policy?+

30 days, used or unused. Cook with it properly. Package in original box with sheath on blade. Prepaid label provided.

How does it compare at this price?+

A full-tang, high-carbon cleaver with a leather sheath for $104.99. Most cleavers at this price are stamped, partial-tang, and come without a sheath.

A business ran like it should be

Good product but what stands out is the customer service. I absolutely love the knives, but I think I like the customer service better.

All have the logo?

Was kind of interested for my teenage son, who likes cooking, but doubt he would like the logo... but I love the look of this cleaver.

>> Knifz replied:

Well maybe it's forward thinking! I'm sure your son will like using it anyway! Thanks for your order and support! Cheers, Marcus

Amazing knives and even better customer support

These knives are SHARP! One of the best investments I have made in my kitchen. Cutting large pieces of meat is now such an easy task. I damaged one of my knives (my fault) and contacted customer support to see how I can get it repaired. Marcus, the owner, contacted me personally and took care of me. Who does that any more?! I can't say enough good things about this product.

8 inch Cleaver Knife

I bought this for my son in law, he's a big steak guy, he LOVES it! The first time he tried it he and his brother kept saying what the f**k?! Because of the ease of slicing. He said it's the best knife he's ever used. I also used it to cube grilled chicken breasts. I stack them three at a time and cut right through them! Please be careful it's extremely sharp. The knife is also aesthetically pleasing and comes with a very nice case.

>> Knifz replied:

Stoked they are loving the knives Tracy! That's awesome... I think I said the same thing when I first got them in my hand too! Cheers, Marcus (owner)

Sharpest knife ever.

A great knife, but like all great things great care must be taken when cleaning and oiling wooden handles.

8" cleaver

The 8" cleaver works great for chopping vegetables just be careful where you place your fingers as this knife is very sharp. Maybe Knifz should sell an onion glove!

>> Knifz replied:

LOL Loreen... Thank you for the wonderful review! They are definitely sharp, so be careful! Cheers, Marcus

Great Knives / Great Customer Care

The moment I got my knives, I was very pleased with the quality. They're very sharp, and hold the edge well. I've interacted with customer service a few times and found them very responsive, kind, and courteous.
