Straight answers
Questions we get every day
Steven from the warehouse floor. These are the ones that land in my inbox most.
Is this the same cleaver as the Special Edition?
Yes, exactly the same knife. The bundle is the Original cleaver plus its leather sheath in one box, priced lower than buying the two apart. The 128 reviews on the cleaver are reviews of this blade.
Will it rust?
Not if you treat it like a knife and not like a spoon. It is German 1.4116 stainless steel, the same family of steel used in most professional kitchen knives. Rinse it, dry it, put it away. Leave it wet in the sink overnight and any blade on earth will spot. Dry it and it will outlast every other knife in the drawer.
Does it hold an edge?
Yes. It comes sharp out of the box and holds that edge through real cooking. When it finally needs a touch up, any whetstone or pull-through sharpener works, the same as any stainless kitchen knife. No special gear.
Is it the same cleaver as in the videos?
Yes. The Original is the exact cleaver the lads have used in every Men With The Pot video since the shed days. The 2.0 is the bigger, heavier evolution of it, forged in the same place by the same people.
What does the 99-day home trial actually mean?
Cook with it for 99 days. If it is not the knife for you, send it back and we refund you. No questions, no restocking fee, no forms to fill in. Write to support@thecookingguild.com and we sort it.
What does the lifetime warranty cover?
Any manufacturing defect, for life. A handle that loosens, a blade that chips under normal use, a fault in the forging. It does not cover a cleaver that has gone through a dishwasher or been used as an axe, but if something is wrong with how it was made, we replace it.
When will it ship and how do I track it?
You get a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships. US shipping is $8.99, or free on orders over $99. If your tracking has not moved, reply to that email and I will chase it personally.
Anything else? Reply to any of our emails or write to support@thecookingguild.com and I will get back to you.
