Butcher's Knives
Diverse in styles, butcher's knives are generally recognised by their longer blades featuring an upwardly curved tip. Although both butcher's knives and cleavers are adept at breaking down meat and bone, they serve distinct purposes. Butcher's knives are skilfully designed for slicing and sawing motions, providing precision in cutting through varied textures. Conversely, cleavers stand out in their proficiency at splitting and chopping with a distinctive up-and-down cutting pattern, making them particularly effective for heavier tasks like cleaving through bones. Each knife type is tailored to specific cutting techniques in meat preparation.
