What is the Annihilator Cleaver designed for?

The Annihilator is built for heavy-duty chopping, slicing, and cleaving tasks. Its 6mm thick blade and 2.5 lbs of weight deliver exceptional power, making it perfect for breaking down large cuts of meat, cutting through bones, and tackling tough vegetables with ease.

What types of tasks is the Annihilator best suited for?

The Annihilator excels at butchery, BBQ prep, and professional kitchen work. It’s ideal for chopping through dense meats, bones, cartilage, and hard vegetables, making it a go-to tool for chefs, pitmasters, and butchers who need maximum cutting power.

What is 7CR17MOV-X stainless steel, and why is it used in the Annihilator?

7CR17MOV-X stainless steel is known for its excellent toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. It’s chosen for the Annihilator because it can be forged into a thick, heavy-duty blade that withstands the demands of high-impact chopping without compromising sharpness.

How heavy is the Annihilator, and how does its weight affect performance?

Weighing 2.5 lbs, the Annihilator is hefty enough to power through dense foods with minimal effort. The weight works with gravity to reduce strain on the user while maximizing chopping force, allowing for smooth, efficient cuts even through the toughest materials.

Does the Annihilator come with a sheath and display stand?

Yes, the Annihilator includes a durable sheath for safe storage and transport, as well as a handcrafted acacia wood display stand. This lets you showcase the cleaver as both a powerful tool and a striking statement piece.

What is the purpose of the blade cutout on the Annihilator?

The blade cutout helps balance the cleaver by reducing front-heavy weight. This design feature improves control, reduces fatigue during extended use, and enhances maneuverability, making the Annihilator feel surprisingly agile despite its size.

How sharp is the Annihilator out of the box?

The Annihilator is meticulously sharpened to a razor-sharp edge using Dalstrong’s D3™ sharpening process. It’s ready to perform high-precision cuts right out of the box, effortlessly slicing through meat, bone, and vegetables.

What is Dalstrong D3™ Sharpening, and how does it enhance the Annihilator's performance?

Dalstrong D3™ (Diamond Detailing) Sharpening is a multi-stage process that grinds, polishes, and hones the blade to achieve exceptional sharpness. This process ensures the Annihilator maintains a razor-sharp edge even after prolonged use, providing long-lasting cutting performance.

How does the LionShield™ treatment improve the Annihilator's blade?

The LionShield™ treatment is an advanced thermal and cryogenic process that strengthens the blade’s microstructure. It enhances hardness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention, making the Annihilator incredibly durable and capable of withstanding years of demanding use.

How should I care for and maintain the Annihilator?

To maintain peak performance, hand wash the Annihilator with warm water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly before storing it in the provided leather sheath. Regular honing will help maintain the blade’s sharpness. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers to preserve the blade’s finish.

What warranties or guarantees come with the Annihilator?

The Annihilator is backed by Dalstrong’s lifetime warranty against defects and a 70-day money-back guarantee. This ensures peace of mind, knowing that your cleaver is built to last and supported by Dalstrong’s commitment to quality.
