      FAQs

      What types of kitchen tasks is the Chicken Chaser MK1 designed to handle?

      The MK1 is built for demanding butchery work such as chopping through poultry, separating joints, preparing ribs, cutting through cartilage, and portioning large cuts of meat. Its thick 3.5 mm blade and substantial weight give you the force and control needed for heavy-duty chopping.

      How does 5CR15MOV steel perform in a cleaver used for tough ingredients?

      5CR15MOV steel is known for its excellent toughness and resistance to chipping—ideal for impact-style chopping. This makes it reliable for tasks that require repeated force, such as tackling chicken bones and dense vegetables, without compromising sharpness or durability.

      Is the MK1 cleaver suitable for professional kitchens as well as home use?

      Yes. Its handcrafted construction, full tang build, and sturdy rosewood handle make it durable enough for professional butchery while still being approachable for home cooks who need a powerful, versatile cleaver for everyday prep or barbecue tasks.

      What advantages does the rosewood handle offer during heavy chopping?

      The natural form-fitting shape of the rosewood handle provides a secure, comfortable grip, especially during forceful cuts. Its ergonomic contours help reduce wrist fatigue and improve control, making it easier to guide the blade through tough ingredients with precision.

      What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?

      Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.

      We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.

      Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?

      We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.

      Is this knife dishwasher-safe?

      We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.

      How should I sharpen this knife?

      You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.

      What’s the best way to store this knife?

      Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
