This version of the heavy-duty cleaver design from Kizer and Sheepdog Knives knifemaker Chris Conaway features a black carbon fiber handle and a black stonewashed blade for a utilitarian black on black look. Its large sheepfoot style blade is made from premium CPM-S35VN stainless steel and the wide shape makes it perfect for a varied array of tasks. The beefy blade deploys effortlessly on a smooth ball bearing pivot (as with all Kizer knives!) and locks up nice and solid. The contoured carbon fiber handle scales are comfortable, durable, and provide a secure grip as well as being easy on the eyes! This eye catching knife is a great mix of tactical functionality and stylish good looks.
