Messermeister Pro Series 6 Heavy Meat Cleaver

Messermeister, a California-based company with German heritage, is committed to creating high-quality kitchen products that balance performance and environmental responsibility. Located in Ojai, California, the brand sources the world to find the best manufacturing quality.

Messermeister's goal is to minimize and repurpose waste through its production processes, making it an Earth-conscious brand. The company is now led by founder Bernd Dressler's wife, Debra, and daughters, Kirsten and Chelcea, making it the only fully women-owned and operated knife company in the world.

The brand offers a range of chef's knives, including the Oliva Elite 8-inch Stealth Chef's Knife, the Meridian Elite 9-inch Stealth Chef's Knife, the Overland Chef 8-inch Chef's Knife, and the Adventure Chef Folding 6-inch Chef's Knife. These knives are made in Solingen, Germany, and Maniago, Italy, using high-quality materials such as Italian olive wood, polyoxymethylene, ultra-tough canvas micarta, and carbonized maple.

The knives are designed to be sharp, rust-resistant, and easy to sharpen and maintain, with a 15-degree blade edge. The contoured, hygienic handles offer safety and comfort during use.

Messermeister's Pro-Series knives are specifically designed for the demands of commercial kitchens, with a one-piece stamped construction that produces a stronger blade and an oversized, non-slip grip handle. The heavy meat cleaver, for example, can effortlessly cut through large pieces of meat and bone, and the side of the blade can be used to smash garlic or lemongrass.

Founded in 1981, Messermeister is a family and women-owned company that continues to bring innovation and creativity to kitchens around the world. With a focus on quality, environmental responsibility, and women's leadership, the brand is a standout in the kitchen cutlery industry.
