Chopper King Shirogami Stainless Clad Kau Kong Chopper #1 193mm

Made in Taiwan with Japanese steel, it's cleaver perfection! Chopper King Chinese are handcrafted by expert artisans in traditional styles and slice with the best of them.

When many folks think of a Chinese cleaver, they picture a jack of all trades that can do almost anything. This is that cleaver. The Kau Kong will slice garlic, blast through squash, and chop up roast pork. Just stay away from big bones!

It takes a wickedly sharp edge thanks to a core of Shirogami #2 carbon steel, and a protective cladding of stainless steel means only the edge needs to be kept dry to prevent rust.

About the Shape - This is the quintessential Chinese chef's knife, made from high-carbon steel, and is perfect for a wide range of tasks similar to a 210mm or 240mm gyuto. From fine mincing chops to chopping veggies and slicing meat, this blade can handle anything but bones. If you're looking to experiment with a different shape and master some new skills, you need to snag one of these.
