Combined with the Zwilling signature ice-hardening technique, these blades are harder, sharper, they will not stain or chip, and they retain their sharpness longer.

A little on the clunky side and not as sharp as I would have liked. As a result we don’t use for meats and vegetables that require fine and predictable slicing.. Cynthia. Michigan. Sat Jul 22 2023

Excellent veggie cleaver! This knife is high quality and well balanced and js perfect for quick slicing or chopping and scooping. The blade is thin so I would not recommend it on bones, but it does amazingly for slicing boneless meat.. Chefgrim. Fri Aug 28 2026

Really nice heavy weight sharp cleaver!!! Well made and great for meat and chickens!. Mario. NY. Fri Mar 13 2026

Sometimes a chopper is required for preparation work in the kitchen, primarily for chopping garlic or cleaving a chicken. A normal chef's knife is not always suitable for chopping vegetables or meat. It can even be dangerous when there is a chance of slipping. In such situations, it’s better to reach for a solid chopper with a special blade design that doesn’t require muscular strength even when cleaving tough pieces of meat. The Zwilling Pro series mini chopper boasts a balanced weight ratio and sits particularly comfortably in the hand with its 12 cm blade. The blade of the Sigmaforge knife is forged from a single piece of steel. Made from special formula stainless steel, it is especially corrosion-proof and durable. During manufacture, Friodur blades are additionally refined with special ice-hardening. In addition to its exceptionally high quality, the chopper impresses with its functionality and attractive design. The plastic ergonomic handle facilitates effortless and safe working and boasts a classic 3-rivet design. Thanks to its shape and slightly curved bottom, the chopper continues to sit comfortably in the hand even after prolonged work. This premium Zwilling Pro series chopper makes cooking even more fun.

I got this cleaver on a whim when shopping for other specific knives my boyfriend had mentioned he wanted. He has mentioned before that he would like a cleaver--this seemed like a perfect way to test the waters. It's hilariously small yet still effective! It has a good weight and good balance, and he used it to cut a large spaghetti squash fairly easily (1 strike, plus some pushing to get the knife all the way through). My only regret was assuming that the knife would fit in our Zwilling knife block, but the blade is too wide. I ended up buying a cleaver sheath but wish that could have been from Zwilling as well..
