Maestro Wu Chinese Vegetable & Meat Cleaver Knife Set (D-1) consists of the D-4 Chinese vegetable cleaver, and the D-5 Chinese meat and bone cleaver. The 2 piece set comes in a storage box that has the story of Kinmen Bombshell Steel Knives. It makes for a great gift! If you have room for only 2 knives in your kitchen, these should be them. For the same blades with different handles, check out the Steel Handle F-1, or the traditional Wooden Handle G-1 sets.
The Meat Cleaver from the D-1 set easily chops chicken bones, beef bones, turkey bones, pork bones, and even fish into bite-size pieces. The Vegetable Cleaver allows you to cut, chop and slice vegetables and boneless meats with ease. The wide face of both knives can be used to “scoop” up cut food, and they are perfect for smashing garlic! These cleavers can be found individually under the D-4 Vegetable Cleaver and the D-5 Meat Cleaver.

When I was a young, My grandmother had these knives in her kitchen in Taiwan. I don’t remember seeing other knives there. Every time I use them, I think of her.
