Gladiator Series
Cleaver & Butcher Knife 12.5"

Description

Something massive this way comes. Kitchens tremble before the mighty Gladiator Series 12.5” Devastator Butcher Knife. Engineered for wreaking total havoc on large cuts of meat and bone, this is the super-sized must-have for the butcher or huntsman who doesn’t back down. Weighing in at a colossal 1.5 lbs, with a 4mm thick blade measuring over a foot long, this knife is a menacing cross between a chef’s knife, slicer, and cleaver. With a uniquely designed protruding belly, the Devastator’s blade geometry makes deboning, chopping, and breaking down beef, poultry, pork, and other animals look like child’s play. Make quick work of splitting squash, pumpkin, and watermelon with a single annihilating stroke. No challenge is too daunting for this giant kitchen warrior.

The Gladiator Series blade is precision forged from a single piece of imported premium-quality, high-carbon ThyssenKrupp German steel, ensuring an ultra-sharp edge with excellent wear and stain resistance. Hand sharpened to a staggering 16-18 degrees per side, the Dalstrong Gladiator Series of knives are high-performance kitchen workhorses, ensuring ultra-thin slicing and dicing with minimal effort, maintenance, or cleanup required.

Featuring an ultra-rugged, military-grade G10 handle, the Devastator is carefully designed for maximum control and durability. Both larger and thicker than other Gladiator Series knife handles — with the total blade stretching a whopping 18.5″ — you’ll enjoy the satisfaction of its enormous heft and balance every time you reach for it.
