Introducing the Phantom Series 4.5” Mini Cleaver. An impressive and high-performing, pint-sized instrument of culinary production. This masterfully engineered cleaver offers impressive control and agility, adept at effortlessly chopping cured meats, cheeses and vegetables, slicing beef and dissecting poultry and mincing herbs and garlic.

The wide-blade is ideal to scoop and transfer chopped foods, while the added weight assists the knife in easily dropping through foods in a single stroke. A velvety rich black Spanish pakkawood handle is hand polished and laminated to ensure a heaven like grip with exceptional durability. The traditional Japanese D-shaped handle is expertly engineered to tuck perfectly into the palm of your hand for ultimate control, cut after cut, while the narrow blade design allows for maneuverability and nimble movement like never before.
