What can you use a cleaver for?

Most people have seen a cleaver before, but not everyone knows what such a knife can be used for. Chopping axes are mainly used for cutting large pieces of meat. Because this is a sharp and strong knife, you can easily cut through bone and cartilage, for example. You don't have to exert a lot of force on the blade, which is the case if you use a standard chef's knife to cut the meat.

The above text might make you think that cleavers are only meant for cutting meat. Although such a knife is indeed often used for this, it also offers a solution for cutting large vegetables. With a chopping ax, for example, it is a lot easier to cut vegetables such as celeriac or kohlrabi than with a normal kitchen knife. Cleavers are also ideal for cutting large types of fruit, such as watermelon or pineapple.

Do you want to chop an onion or garlic? Then you might do this with the help of a paring knife. This is a great option, but it will cost you an unnecessary amount of time. It goes a lot faster with a cleaver. Be careful of your fingers, because cleavers are often quite sharp. If you're not careful, you could end up cutting off a piece of your finger. After you've chopped up the ingredients, you can also use the ax to slide them from the cutting board into the pan.
