Overview
Hand-forged in Hanoi from 52100 carbon steel and finished with a rustic kurouchi skin, the Dao Vua V3 Special Edition Kiri Cleaver brings big-knife versatility to your prep station without the bulk of a full Chinese cleaver. Its kiritsuke-style tip excels at detail work, while the tall blade makes vegetable chopping and bench-scooping effortless. An octagonal ebony handle with a brass ferrule provides a secure, elegant grip, and the differential heat-treat leaves a visible hamon that develops a rich patina over time
Common Questions
Q: Is this cleaver suitable for home cooks?
A: Absolutely. At just 262 g it handles more like an oversize nakiri, so you get the food-scooping height of a cleaver with nimble control for everyday meals.
Q: Can I cut through bones with it?
A: The V3’s 3 mm spine and 60–61 HRC edge are tuned for produce, boneless meats, and light butchery. For heavy bone work, reach for a true meat cleaver to keep this fine edge chip-free.
Q: What maintenance does 52100 carbon steel require?
A: Wash promptly, dry completely, and apply a light coat of oil. Expect a protective patina to form; it’s normal and helps guard against rust.
