This Chinese meat cleaver is designed for chopping through bone – perfect for jointing chicken and cutting up red meat. The Chinese meat cleaver is a beautifully-balanced knife, with a stout, heavy blade that’s ideal for getting weight behind it. It is also great for cutting through fruit and vegetables like squash and pineapple.

The Shibazi Chinese meat cleaver is made in the Southern Chinese province of Guangdong – in Yangjiang, a city famed for its metalwork and knives for 1,400 years. In China, Shibazi is a household name, having won over 300 awards, and built up a global reputation for its quality knives.
