The NEW Cattleman Cleaver R&D First Batch Drop
https://www.montanaknifecompany.com/collections/cattlemen-cleaver
The Cattleman Cleaver was born out of our quest to create the ultimate culinary toolkit. Forged with the discerning chef in mind, this isn’t just a knife — it’s a testament to Montana Knife Company’s dedication to craftsmanship and utility. With its formidable size and thickness, the Cattleman Cleaver is designed to master the rigorous demands of culinary excellence, effortlessly transitioning from carving thick meats and breaking down tendons and bone to making quick work of chopping hearty vegetables.
Despite its beefy appearance, the Cattleman Cleaver is sculpted for comfort and ergonomics. Using the same handle shape and construction as our Chef’s and Filet Knives, it really is a tool you’ll want to use every day. A balance of power and control is at the heart of its design — robust enough to tackle heavy-duty tasks without compromising the ability to maneuver with precision.
AEB-L BLADE STEEL
Crafted from AEB-L blade steel, the Cattleman Cleaver is a testament to versatility and enduring performance. This steel is known for its rust resistance, exceptional toughness, and ability to hold a sharp edge, ensuring the cleaver can withstand the rigors of daily use. The addition of a Cerakote finish not only adds to its corrosion resistance but also enhances its aesthetic appeal, making it a piece that’s as beautiful as it is functional and still completely food-safe.
GENTLE ROCKER SHAPE
The Cattleman Cleaver’s blade isn’t just about power; it’s about precision.
With a gentle rocker shape, it facilitates an intuitive and effortless rocking motion during use. This feature is particularly beneficial when slicing or dicing, enabling the chef to work with speed and accuracy. It’s a design that respects the art of cooking, making each cut not just efficient but enjoyable.
IDEAL WEIGHT BALANCE
Achieving the perfect weight balance, the Cattleman Cleaver tips the scales at a deliberate 12.39 oz.
Its design includes a skeletonized tang, a technique borrowed from our hunting knives for reducing weight without sacrificing strength. This strategic removal of weight from the handle shifts the balance forward, empowering chefs with a blade that feels like an extension of their hand, perfect for precision tasks in the kitchen.
G10 HANDLE SCALES
The G10 handle scales on the Cattleman Cleaver are engineered for resilience and grip.
This high-pressure fiberglass laminate — a material celebrated for its durability, moisture resistance, and stability — ensures a secure and comfortable grip, even in the busiest of kitchen environments. These durable, ergonomic handles underscore our commitment to providing tools that chefs can rely on, dish after dish.
EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH
Safety and protection are paramount, which is why the Cattleman Cleaver comes equipped with a custom Kydex sheath. This durable covering shields the blade when not in use, ensuring it remains in pristine condition. The sheath’s design reflects Montana Knife Company’s dedication to quality and detail, providing chefs with peace of mind and a reliable means of transport for their culinary companion.
