F. Dick 7-inch 2-Pound Meat Cleaver
Chops, ribs and restaurant butchering are the jobs for this 2-pound F. Dick cleaver. It has enough weight to sever meat and bone in a clean stroke and a long, thick handle that balances the heavy blade.The forged blade is tapered so it wedges through bone instead of bouncing off it. The bolster is smoothed, so it does not dig into the hand during heavy use, and a hole in the blade lets the cleaver hang on a hook or rail. Each edge is hand-sharpened at the F. Dick factory.Restaurant kitchens that cut their own short ribs and oxtails get a cleaver heavy enough for bone that still lifts easily for repeated strokes. The 7-inch blade also leaves room to scoop cut pieces off the block.A lighter option for poultry is the 6-inch 1-pound meat cleaver. For beef and larger pork bones, the 9-inch 3-pound and 10-inch 4-pound cleavers bring more mass. The comparison table below shows each weight and its typical work. Learn More$76.70 -

F. Dick ProDynamic 9-inch Offset Serrated Knife

The ProDynamic offset serrated knives are among our best sellers for their build quality and value.The blade sits lower than the handle, so the cutter can push straight through to the board without scraping knuckles.
