About the Shape - The cleaver, the iconic tool of a butcher. Unlike the thin, sexy Nakiri of Japan, the cleaver is a beefy blade designed for smashing through hard items, and boy does it work. Unlike the cleaver of olde, Arcos blades take and hold a razor edge incredibly well, and stand up to loads of butchery. 180mm is a good versatile size, especially if you have a bone-saw for larger work. The square tip allows for increased precision

Arcos Hermanos S.A. - The brand officially began in 1745 with Juan Arcos, who forged blades now found in the National Archeological Museum in Madrid. The craft continued through the family line until Gregoria Arcos Aroco who turned the small hand-forging shop into a fully mechanized production shop for high-quality Spanish blades in 1875. One hundred years down the road, his descendant Gregorio Arcos Villanueva desired more and began the expansion of Arcos into the International brand that it is today. Through nearly 300 years of manufacturing, the family has never ceased their innovation.

Stainless steel is super handy because it doesn’t rust or stain easily like carbon steel. That said, remember it is stain-less, not stain-never. While it is much easier to care for than high-carbon steel, it does benefit from proper use: use it, wash it, dry it and put it away. Always avoid the dishwasher!

CLEANING  

• After use, wash the knife by hand with regular dish soap, rinse with hot water  and dry by hand immediately. Dishwashers are very bad for knives.  

• Wood handles may dry out over time and exposure to water. Simply treat them  with some food safe wax.

STORING  

• Protect the edge for your safety and to avoid edge damage. A simple blade cover  will do the trick if you keep knives in a drawer or in a travel case.  

• The convenient wall magnet made with wood is a great way to show off your knives.  Be sure to put it back spine first, then roll it onto the blade face. This will keep the  edge from contacting the wood first.  

• The good ol’ counter top block can keep knives at the ready and protected, so  can drawer inserts. Whatever the method, it should keep the edge from touching  anything else.

Reviews

Perfect for Coconuts

"I walked in and mentioned that I eat a great many coconuts, and my current knives simply could not make the coco-CUT for breaking through the shells. I asked the blade dealer for his finest coconut knife and he very coco-KINDLY recommended this one. I put it to the test the day of, tasking it with the cracking of five coconuts, fibrous outer shell and all. This hefty coco-CLEAVER got the job done. If you are like me and crave nothing more than sweet salty coconut water, sipped by a bendy straw from the shell in the light summer breeze, get yourself one of these - it pays for it-shell-f!"

I always wanted a cleaner

It's comfortable, sharp and well

"It's comfortable, sharp and well worth the money I highly recommend it for cutting meat,small bones but because it's a bit beefy it's not the best vegetable cutter"
