Warthog 6" Hand Forged Cleaver, 1095 Steel, Pakka Wood Handle

Built for the serious pitmaster, butcher, and outdoor cook. The Warthog 6" is forged from 1095 steel, delivering uncompromising chopping power and holding a relentless working edge far longer than stamped, mass-produced kitchen tools.

The 6-inch blade carries a deep belly and substantial forward weight, purpose-built for breaking down tough joints. We left the raw forge scale intact on the upper flat — a brutalist, non-stick finish that glides through thick cuts without drag — mounted to a moisture-resistant pakka wood handle.

Care Instructions

Hand wash only and dry immediately after use. Wipe a light coat of food-grade mineral oil onto the blade before storing to keep the steel in peak condition for decades.

CLEANING

This is high carbon steel a blade that demands respect. Hand wash it right after the use. We mean, the cut. Dry it before it goes back in its sheath. Moisture can only spoil this blade. And the dishwasher.

OILING

Your Xcutlery blade arrives pre oiled. Keep the ritual alive after every clean and dry, give the steel a light coat of oil. Use our mineral oil or any food safe oil you trust. A well oiled blade doesn't age. It sharpens with time.

SHARPENING

Straight out of the box, this thing is sharp and it'll stay that way for months. But legends maintain their edge. When it's time, run it across our whetstone and bring it back to razor perfect. A dull knife is just metal.
