Some FAQs

Is this a kitchen cleaver or a survival tool?

It is both! While its size and heft are inspired by traditional meat cleavers, its construction from 5160 spring steel and full-tang handle make it overwhelmingly durable for outdoor survival tasks, bushcraft, and hunting. It's a true multi-purpose powerhouse.

Is it really appropriate as a Valentine's gift?

Absolutely. For the right person, it's a profoundly thoughtful gift. It symbolizes strength, protection, and a willingness to embark on adventures together far more memorable than a standard card or chocolates. It’s a gift for someone who appreciates practicality, craftsmanship, and unique symbolism.

How does it compare to your khukuri knives?

The khukuri (view here) has a distinctive curved blade optimized for chopping. This cleaver features a straight, heavy blade that excels at splitting and precise, powerful cuts on a flat surface. They are complementary tools for different tasks.

What does 'oil tempered' mean?

Oil tempering is a heat treatment process where the steel blade is quenched in oil. This controls the cooling rate, resulting in a blade that achieves an optimal balance of hardness (for edge retention) and flexibility (to resist chipping and breaking) under stress.
