6 1/2" OAL Bur Oak Mini-Cleaver!




The first Mini-Cleaver was extremely popular so I figured I'd make another... Here is a Mini-Cleaver with some Stabilized Florida Bur Oak for the handle material, this particular piece of Bur Oak has some spalting that makes the wood grain simply astounding. I added a 2" Swedge to this one that can be used as a scraper or to make using a Ferro Firestarter Rod pretty easy. This one is pretty much the same design as my Prototype that I tested in in a YouTube Video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIv3OElqvRk&t=14s). Someone asked me "What good would a Mini-Cleaver be?" Well, first off it's FUN, and then you have makin' dinner, using it to make a camp fire, how about being a wicked cool cheese cutter for your next family dinner?, you could also use it to process small game animals, and I'm just getting warmed up but you get the point. The spec's for this indomitable little fella are listed below.
