About This Knife

Built for robust performance and striking aesthetics, the "Timberclad" Cleaver is meticulously crafted by an artisan knife maker for heavy-duty culinary and camp tasks. The broad 7.5-inch blade is formed from high-grade D2 steel, offering exceptional edge retention, toughness, and a clean finish that powers through thick cuts and tough prep work with ease.

The 5-inch handle features a unique two-tone construction, seamlessly joining two distinct natural woods to create a comfortable, ergonomic grip and a visually striking profile. To protect the blade during transport or storage, the cleaver includes a custom-fitted, hand-stitched leather sheath equipped with a secure brass snap closure and a sturdy belt loop.

Care & Maintenance

Cleaning & Storage
Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap. Never place a high-carbon or Damascus steel blade in a dishwasher. Dry immediately with a soft cloth. Store in a dry environment, ideally out of the leather sheath for long-term storage to prevent moisture retention.
Oiling the Blade
High-carbon steels will naturally patina over time, which adds character and protection. To prevent rust, apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil or camellia oil after every use. For wood handles, occasional treatment with beeswax or boiled linseed oil will preserve the lustre.
Sharpening
Maintain the edge between uses with a ceramic honing rod. When it is time to sharpen, we recommend Japanese water stones (1000/3000 grit) maintained at a 15-20 degree angle per side. Avoid pull-through carbide sharpeners, as they remove too much steel and can chip the hard edge.
