This knife is cleaver.

Prepare to waltz right through prep work like never before. With a sturdy, broad, rectangular blade, this Zwilling J.A. Henckels Pro 7-inch cleaver—also known as a Chinese chef's knife—cuts through meat and hardy vegetables like it’s its job (because, well, it is). Thinner blades run the risk of shattering, but not this clever cleaver. Forged from a single piece of stainless steel, the blade is ice-sharpened by hand then precision honed and polished, while the curved handle is designed for optimum comfort and stability. Nonstop resilience will be yours with sharp results that'll stay that way longer—through all the mise en place it meets.
