Perform all of your cutting tasks with this Wustof Classic cleaver. Made in Solingen, Germany, it was hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen. The high-carbon stainless steel blade is hardened to maintain a sharp edge, and its full tang provides perfect balance with a riveted, high-impact composition handle. Wusthof''s newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives and allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees, doubling the sharpness retention. This cleaver also features a convenient blade "eye" for hanging when not in use. This knife is backed by a manufacturer''s limited lifetime warranty and is the perfect addition to your cutlery collection.Measurements9" L
