Features of the kitchen cleaver
The kitchen cleaver is one of the typical tools that can be found in any kitchen or butcher's shop. It is characterized by a sturdy blade that can vary from 15 to 25 cm. Unlike other kitchen knives that you generally find in a professional chef's knife bag, the kitchen cleaver is designed to give precise and robust strokes in order to separate food neatly and if necessary break small bones if present.
The Japanese kitchen cleaver
There are many cooking enthusiasts who, approaching this knife, confuse it with the Nakiri knife. Although the shape of these two types of kitchen knife are similar, their function is completely different. In fact, if you are looking for a Japanese kitchen cleaver, what you are looking for is the Deba knife and not the Nakiri knife.
What misleads many buyers is the shape of these knives. However, we must not forget that what makes the kitchen knife suitable for breaking small bones or giving sharp blows, is not so much the shape, but the characteristics of the blade.
The Nakiri knife is in fact a light knife with an extremely thin blade and its main function is to cut vegetables. This is in fact a vegetable knife and not a Japanese kitchen cleaver. On the contrary, if you are looking for an Asian knife designed to give sharp blows, therefore equipped with a sturdy blade, that is the Deba knife.
