Are they dishwasher safe indeed?** A: In theory nothing wrong, salt will not cause issues with the stainless steel blade, despite thoughts to the opposite. However the handles claim to be wood, so if you do wash them in a dishwasher get them out when the cycle is finished and make sure to dry. **Q: Can they go in dishwasher or will they rust up?** A: I have put them in the dishwasher & they they don’t rust but I would recommend you wash them under the tap as the salt in the dishwasher tablet will dull the blade over time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb quality - over two years post purchase. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 21 April 2026* Had mine for over two years and it is my go to knife for more or less everything. It holds and edge super well, sharpens easily and doesn't chip or roll too easily when chopping, even through bone.Handle is comfy and has held up to the abuses of being washed in the dishwasher once or twice a day for 20+ months. Good quality material for blade and handle.Size is very comfortable for myself and my partner, the wide cheek of the blade means safe chopping as you can finger guide safely without risking your nails or your knuckles and making it a dream to use. The bolster of the knife is smooth and allows for good finger positioning.It's absolute steal of a price for what it is and the quality you get. Only came back to review as I'm considering buying more or their blades as I end up using this knife for things that a full length chefs knife would be more appropriate for.I recommend this specific knife for anyone who even mentions kitchen knives around me. Superb. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good item for the kitchen. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 9 February 2026* A good kitchen knife a cross between a knife and cleaver a bit more weight so helps if you have to break a bone in meat. very balanced and easy to use and keeps its edge with a little use on a sharpening iron I highly recommend this product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great knife for the price! *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 20 September 2025* For the price, this is an outstanding knife, possibly the best value for money I’ve ever owned. I’ve been using it for over two years and it’s become my go-to for almost everything, replacing several of my other knives.The shape is what makes it so versatile, just last night I boned a lamb leg, finely sliced onions for pickling, and crushed and chopped garlic, all with this one knife. It holds an edge well too; I sharpened it once when I first bought it, and only once more since. A quick touch with the steel before each use keeps it performing beautifully.If I had one criticism, it’s that the blade is a little thicker than I’d like. That’s the only reason I’d consider upgrading. That said, it’s hard to find another knife with this shape and this level of quality for the money, or a lot more! ## Frequently Bought Together - SHAN ZU 7 Inch Chef Knife, Sharp Meat Cleaver Knife Vegetable Chopper Professional Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel Kitchen Chopping Knife with K133 Wood Handle, Black Tortoise Genbu Series - SHAN ZU Damascus Knife Set, Japanese Super Steel 3 PCS Damascus High Carbon Professional Ultra-Sharp Kitchen Chef Knife Set with G10 Handle Gift Box --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/535092706-cleaver-knife-7-inch-japanese-5cr15mov-steel-meat-vegetable-knife](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/535092706-cleaver-knife-7-inch-japanese-5cr15mov-steel-meat-vegetable-knife) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-24*
