Cleaverfold Pocket Knife 7" Handmade Stainless Steel Cleaver Blade

Cleaver-style blades earned their reputation for offering a flat, controlled cutting surface, useful for chopping and general utility tasks that a curved blade handles less efficiently. The Cleaverfold Pocket Knife brings that same practical profile into a compact folding design, continuing the tradition of every Pocket Cleaver Knife we forge today.

Wood handles have long been valued in traditional knife making for their natural grip and warm, classic look, a mark of everyday craftsmanship.

At 7 inches when open, with a 3-inch blade and 4-inch handle, it's compact enough for daily carry without feeling bulky. As a Folding Cleaver Blade, the flat edge profile handles chopping and utility tasks a standard pointed blade struggles with.

Product Care for JW SteelCrafts Hand-Forged Products

To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-forged JW SteelCrafts products, follow these essential care instructions:

1. Regular Cleaning
   Wipe your knives, swords, axes, and rings with a soft cloth to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that could damage the steel’s finish.
2. Dry Thoroughly
   After cleaning, ensure your product is completely dried. This helps prevent water spots, rust, or corrosion, particularly on blades and steel surfaces exposed to moisture.
3. Proper Storage
   Store your hand-forged products in a dry, cool place to prevent oxidation or rust. For long-term storage, consider applying a thin layer of oil (e.g., mineral oil or gun oil) to the metal surfaces, or using a rust inhibitor. When storing knives and swords, keep them in protective sheaths or pouches to prevent contact with other materials.
4. Avoid Impact
   While designed for strength and durability, avoid dropping or striking your steel products against hard surfaces. This can cause damage to the blade, edge, or overall integrity of the piece.
5. Edge Maintenance (For Knives & Swords)
   Periodically sharpen the blades to maintain their cutting edge. Use a proper sharpening stone or take your product to a professional for maintenance. Always sharpen in the correct direction to preserve the blade’s integrity.
6. Routine Inspection
   Regularly inspect your products for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. If you notice any issues, reach out to us for maintenance, restoration, or repair services.

By following these care instructions, your JW SteelCrafts products will retain their craftsmanship, functionality, and beauty for years to come.
