This forged Damascus meat cleaver measures 8 inches overall and is built for heavy meat cutting and daily kitchen prep work. The wide, tall blade delivers strong downward cutting power through proteins, dense vegetables, and tough ingredients. The handle is shaped from green pakka wood and secured with steel pins and a mosaic pin. A steel bolster sits between the blade and handle. Full tang construction runs through the entire handle for strength and stable balance throughout every cut.

This is the only single Damascus meat cleaver at JW Steel Crafts with a green pakka wood handle, steel bolster, and mosaic pin in this configuration.

Blade Performance

The blade is forged from layered Damascus steel. The forge-welding and folding process builds a dense layered structure that strengthens the blade and supports consistent edge retention through heavy daily use. The wide blade profile delivers strong downward force for meat breakdown, dense vegetable chopping, and heavy board work. The thick spine adds weight and cutting momentum on each stroke.

The Damascus surface pattern varies naturally on every blade due to the hand-forging process, making each cleaver visually unique. Full tang construction runs the complete length of the green pakka wood handle and spreads weight evenly from blade tip to handle base for stable and controlled cutting throughout extended use.

Handle and Bolster Construction

The handle is shaped from green pakka wood. Pakka wood is natural hardwood compressed with resin under high pressure. It resists moisture, does not swell or crack, and holds its color and surface finish through heavy daily kitchen use. The green color gives this cleaver a bold, distinctive look that stands apart from wood and resin handles across the JW Steel Crafts lineup. Steel pins run through the handle to lock the scales firmly onto the full tang.

A mosaic pin sits centered in the handle for a clean decorative detail that distinguishes this handmade cleaver from factory-produced alternatives. The steel bolster between blade and handle adds front-end weight for better cutting balance and protects fingers from sliding onto the blade edge during heavy chopping work.

Blade Care

Hand-wash this cleaver and dry it straight away after use. Do not put it in a dishwasher. Use a solid wooden cutting board to absorb the impact of heavy cleaver strokes. Apply a thin coat of food-grade mineral oil to the blade occasionally to maintain the Damascus surface between uses. Sharpen with a whetstone when the edge begins to dull.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this cleaver different from other Damascus cleavers at JW Steel Crafts?

This is the only single Damascus cleaver in the store with a green pakka wood handle, steel bolster, and mosaic pin in this configuration.

What is the overall length of this cleaver?

The cleaver measures 8 inches overall with a wide, tall blade profile built for heavy meat cutting and chopping tasks.

What does the mosaic pin on the handle do?

The mosaic pin locks the handle scales firmly to the full tang and adds a decorative handcrafted detail that sets this cleaver apart from factory-produced alternatives.

Is green pakka wood durable for heavy kitchen use?

Yes. Pakka wood is stabilized under resin pressure, making it moisture-resistant, crack-resistant, and far more durable than untreated wood through heavy daily use.

What does the steel bolster do on this cleaver?

The steel bolster adds front-end weight for better cutting balance and stops fingers from sliding onto the blade edge during heavy chopping strokes.

Is this cleaver suitable for bone work?

This cleaver is optimized for heavy meat cutting and dense vegetable prep. For bone splitting, a heavier dedicated bone cleaver is recommended to protect the edge.

Is this cleaver full tang?

Yes. The tang runs the full length of the green pakka wood handle for strength, balance, and long-term durability.

That it’s usable for more than one day
Color: A3-Pink, Color: A3-Pink
The toy itself is great and my puppy enjoyed it. My problem is that it didn’t come with a charging cord and none of mine fit. It never changed colors. Maybe if I had a charger cord it would be worth it, but right now it’s useless!!

Fun for Fido but flimsy
Color: A2-Blue
My 15 yearold mini Schnauzer, Sam, played with this for less than 1 hour and tore the rubber sleeve off it. I will say the toy itself is a genius idea. Sam was absolutely ensconced. I wish it were made sturdier.

It does exactly what they say it does! Worth the money
Color: A1-Red
It arrived quickly. It’s a fun toy! It’s the right size for cats. Definitely worth the money. It is exactly as described. So far, the quality seems very good and it seems durable. The instructions are on the side of the box, which makes learning how to operate it easy. I love it that it’s red, because my kitty seems to be attracted to red. My kitty is very interested in it, yet isn’t quite sure what to think of it. I love that it changes directions on its own so that it doesn’t get stuck or lost under furniture, which is typical for a ball that cats play with. It seems to only go two, three or four feet in one direction and then it changes directions, which is both good and bad. I just wish it would go farther in one direction before changing directions so that my kitty could chase it farther, as we have plenty of space in our house for her to run. But that certainly could be a plus for other cats, enjoying not knowing where the ball is going to go next and really keep them on their toes.

Cat loves this
Color: A1-Red
This toy is great for keeping pets entertained. The ball moves quickly and the tail makes it even more fun for cats to chase. It’s rechargeable and easy to use, and my pet stayed interested much longer than with regular toys.

Great quality and flavor
Color: 3PC-Bacon-Brown, Pattern Name: Tough Dog Toys
I have two dogs that can chew through everything within a day. Not these, going on four days now, there are signs of wear and tear but still intact. The dogs love the flavor.
