The Max Mettle I is a handmade Damascus meat cleaver designed for serious kitchen preparation. With its broad blade, solid 530 g weight and full-tang construction, it is suited to chopping, slicing and general meat preparation where a heavier kitchen knife is preferred.

The blade is forged from 1095 HC and 15N20 Damascus steel, giving it a strong cutting profile and a traditional patterned finish. The Wenge wood handle gives the cleaver a natural, refined appearance while providing a comfortable hold during use.

Must Read – Handmade Craftsmanship

Knife Keen knives are handmade rather than mass-produced by precision machinery. Small marks, natural variations, tiny blemishes or slight differences from the photos may be present. These are normal features of handmade knife making and do not affect the intended function of the knife.

To maintain the blade, wash by hand, dry immediately after use, avoid dishwashers, and apply a light coat of knife oil when storing.
