Meat Cleaver, 22 cm, Arcos Nórdika

Arcos Nórdika Meat Cleaver 22 cm – precision with weight

This powerful meat cleaver from the Arcos Nórdika series weighs a substantial 980 grams and features a 22 cm blade, making it an indispensable tool in the kitchen. The heavy blade combined with the ergonomic wooden handle gives you both force and control when portioning meat or chopping through bone and cartilage.

Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts working with larger cuts of meat, where precision and strength are essential for a good result.

Handcrafted quality that holds its edge

The meat cleaver is handcrafted in Arcos' workshops in Albacete, Spain, where centuries of tradition meet modern production techniques. The robust blade is made from NITRUM® stainless steel – a patented steel type developed by Arcos, in which the steel is enriched with nitrogen. This special composition produces an exceptionally fine and homogeneous steel structure, resulting in greater durability, increased hardness (53 HRC) and outstanding resistance to rust and wear.

Ergonomic design for demanding tasks

The handle in natural Ovengkol wood from FSC®-certified forests provides not only a warm and comfortable grip, but also the stability needed when working with considerable force. Three brass rivets ensure that the handle remains firmly attached to the blade, even under intensive use. The total length of 28 cm and the weight of 980 grams strike the right balance between manoeuvrability and striking power, allowing you to work safely and in full control even with larger cuts of meat.

Proper care ensures a long service life

To preserve the cleaver's quality and sharpness, it should be rinsed after use, particularly after contact with acidic foods. Avoid soaking it or washing it in the dishwasher – it should always be washed by hand and dried immediately afterwards. When the cleaver eventually loses its edge, H.W. Larsen's professional sharpening service, with 85 years of experience, is on hand to restore the optimal cutting edge.

With the Arcos Nórdika meat cleaver you get:

• A professional meat cleaver with the weight and balance for demanding tasks
• Durable NITRUM® steel with outstanding sharpness and rust resistance
• An ergonomic wooden handle from FSC®-certified forests for a secure grip
