Use this cleaver (with its wide, heavy blade) to split bones and meat. A single downward motion lets you butcher poultry, separate ribs and more. Each Grand Prix II knife is precision forged of a single blank of high carbon stainless steel, skillfully honed by hand twice. The perfectly balance cleaver features a molded handle that is slip-resistant and completely hygienic. An update to the original line, the Wusthof Grand Prix II knife offers a more ergonomically designed handle combined with the high quality and contemporary good looks chefs and home gourmets alike desire.

This classic tool of the well-stocked kitchen makes short work of tough jobs like splitting poultry, de-jointing meat or hacking through ribs. The 6-inch cleaver comes in especially handy for cutting up whole chickens or large cuts of meat to freeze parts for later use. The durable 6-inch blade is impressively heavy, well-balanced, and long enough for most home tasks. It features a comfortable ergonomic handle as well as a blade eye for hanging. Like the rest of the Grand Prix2 line, this cleaver is safe in the dishwasher, but hand wash for best results. Grand Prix2 knives offer a compelling blend of precision, comfort, and legendary Wüsthof quality. Like the Grand Prix line, Grand Prix2 boasts a high-performance handle and a sleek contemporary look, with the addition of a more rolling, rounded profile that fits beautifully into the pocket of the palm. Molded ergonomically designed handles are pebble-textured for slip resistance even when wet, then permanently bonded to the entire tang for a superbly balanced feel. Blade, bolster, and tang are precision-forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel for the ultimate in strength and durability. A computer-controlled process grinds and polishes the blade so it’s perfectly tapered from back to edge and tip to handle. The edge is then twice honed by hand and finally laser-tested for long-lasting sharpness. Grand Prix2 cutlery is made in Germany and carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Mary Park

Super Sharp!

I purchased this cleaver to complete my set of Wusthof knives. I was impressed by how sharp this thing is. I had so much fun chopping up a frozen chicken I felt a bit like the Swedish Chef from the Muppets!

is this the best cleaver?

I made a big decision to invest this expensive cleaver, but very dispointed after first use. It is not sharp, it is difficult to cut through meat and bones. Maybe it is the cleaver for professionals because they know how to sharpen and hone it on daily basis.
