Details

First launched in October of 2021, this heavyweight initially sold out in just five hours. Back again for a limited time, the Cleaver is full tang, meaning the blade extends all the way from the tip of the knife through the hilt of the handle for a perfectly balanced performance.

Inspired by old-school butcher shops, it’s optimized for cutting extremely close to the bone, chopping through tough tendons, and can tackle thick-skinned vegetables. Last year, prolific chef and butcher Misti Norris used this Cleaver to take down a whole pig—earning it a permanent spot on her butchery roster.

The Cleaver is crafted in Thiers, France, where a 5th generation bladesmith hand-finishes the Olive Wood handle. It comes with an Italian Leather sheath that’s made in the USA.

Fully Forged

In Thiers, France, artisans use high pressure hammering to create a stronger and longer-lasting blade.

Full Tang

Patiently crafted from a single rod of metal, a full tang knife offers more balance and fewer weak points.

Committed to Craftsmanship

“I would say that a good chef knife is one of the most critical tools you can have in the kitchen. Obviously, almost every ingredient you come in contact with you’re going to cut or manipulate in some way.”

“When you grab those knives and you go to slice or chop, the handle should feel good in your hand. The Made In knives definitely meet that requirement and they also keep their edge, and that’s really really important”
