Despite its size and shape, the Shun Classic Chinese cleaver is intended for vegetables. Asian chefs use this knife in the same manner as western chefs use a Chef's knife - for chopping large quantities of vegetables. With a short up-and-down chopping motion, you can effortlessly use this Classic cleaver from Shun to chop pounds and pounds of vegetables, without getting tired. A lifetime guarantee from Shun backs this superbly crafted Japanese knife.

A cleaver from Shun is the blade you'll need to easily chops and mince pounds and pounds of vegetables.

  • MetroKitchen.com recommends washing your knives by hand and immediately drying them. Do not let your knives soak in water.
  • Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts, as they may stain the surface of your knives.
  • For longer lasting knives, cut on a wooden cutting board. Cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal or glass quickly dulls blades.
  • To maintain a sharper cutting edge, use a sharpening steel, preferably each time after using your knives.
  • It's best to store your Shun knife so the edge and your fingers are protected, preferably in a block or in-drawer knife tray.
  • We suggest using a meat cleaver when you need to cut through bone, otherwise you can damage your knife blade.
