Built for the Block.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGustav Emil Ern was one of Solingen's premier cutlery houses, producing fully forged blades for professional butchers and serious home cooks across Europe. This 180mm cleaver carries that heritage - the fully forged carbon steel blade delivers the heft and edge retention needed for heavy chopping work, while the double-bevel grind keeps it versatile enough for a range of tasks. At 766g, it has the weight to do the work without brute force. Carbon steel sharpens to a finer edge than stainless and develops a natural patina with use. One-of-a-kind and not available anywhere else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing to prevent rust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to the blade if storing long-term\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a whetstone - carbon steel responds exceptionally well to sharpening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA natural patina will develop with use - this is normal and desirable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54860363301155,"sku":"CK-V14311","price":399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/899D314A-29F0-468F-9325-D83ED51BCE5B.jpg?v=1781960491","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/vintage-gustav-emil-ern-cleaver-knife-180mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
