Seido Knives Hakai Chef Cleaver Knife

Meet the Hakai Chef Cleaver Knife — an artisan-crafted, high-carbon stainless steel workhorse built for power and daily precision. With a razor-sharp edge, a 4 mm forged spine, and a confidence-boosting finger hole, Hakai tears through tough vegetables, thick cuts of meat, and smoky BBQ—without switching knives.

  • All-purpose chef’s cleaver: slices, chops, minces, and portions with ease
  • Forged 4 mm spine: rugged strength and stability for controlled chopping
  • High-carbon stainless steel: sharp, durable, and resistant to stains
  • Edge retention: ~58 HRC hardness for long-lasting sharpness
  • Ergonomic control: curved Rosewood handle with secure finger hole grip
  • Full-tang balance: solid, confident feel from heel to tip
  • Includes sheath & gift box — makes the perfect chef’s gift

Power You Can Control

  • One knife, many jobs: replaces multiple bulky blades; perfect as a BBQ knife, meat cleaver, or everyday chef’s knife.
  • Confident grip: the finger hole works in harmony with the curved Rosewood handle to lock in a secure, natural hold.
  • Tall blade geometry: 2.56" (6.5 cm) height keeps knuckles clear and guides straight, even cuts.
  • Durable heat treatment: hard enough to hold an edge, tough enough for daily kitchen use.

FAQ

Is this a meat cleaver or a chef’s cleaver?

It’s a versatile chef’s cleaver: tall like a cleaver for clearance and power, yet thin and sharp enough for precise slicing and everyday prep.

Will it rust?

The blade is high-carbon stainless steel for stain resistance. Hand-wash, dry thoroughly, and avoid long soaking to keep it pristine.

Do I have to use the finger hole?

No—use it if you like the added control for heavy chopping or trimming. The knife handles beautifully with a standard pinch grip as well.
