Mini Cleaver made in China. This cleaver, about the size of a dime, is made from stainless steel and is sharp as can be, made with a full tang and a
small wooden handle. Amazing
craftsmanship in a small package. Very useful for using as a box
or letter opener.

Small, light cleaver made by a Fremont, Ohio company no longer in business.



Above, a cleaver from my town of
Fremont, Ohio, given to me by a friend,
Tim Grayson. The Hollinger Cutlery Co.
of Fremont, Ohio, stamp in photo at left, made a complete line of butcher knives, shears, razors strops, shaving brushes, steels, silverware, pocket knives, hair clippers, screw drivers, pliers, manicure goods, etc. The Hollinger Cutlery Co. claims much for the quality of its butcher knife line, pointing out that every knife, before it passes through the tempering room must stand the "Hollinger" test before any further procedure is taken.
The business was incorporated in March, 1907, with a capital of $50,000.

Cleaver is great for multiple purposes, including gathering firewood, using the butt to hammer in nails or tent stakes, and you can also use a hatchet to create a fire through sparks and friction. The head of this beauty here is forged from heavy duty carbon steel, sharpened to perfection, and has a rough stone finish to prolong the life of the blade and to give it a more rustic feel. There is a short guard that is also carbon steel. The full tang handle is reinforced by two wooden mounts, held together by four sturdy brass pins. The wood has been stained an eccentric shade of lizard green, handmade in Georgia.
