Chinese cleavers

The Chinese chef's knife (Chinese Cleaver) is often mistakenly called a cleaver because of the similar rectangular shape. Chinese chef's knives, however, are much thinner in cross-section and are more intended as general purpose kitchen knives, and are commonly used to cut, chop, cut, dice or chop boneless meat, and flatten garlic bulbs or ginger; while it also serves as a spatula to carry prepared ingredients to the wok.

The Shun Classic Vegetable Cleaver, sometimes known as a Chinese cleaver, is a large squared knife with a very wide blade. Every part of it can be put to use. The edge is used to chop vegetables, especially larger ones such as cabbage, which are frequently a part of Chinese cuisine. Yet some cooks find their cleaver nimble enough for almost every kind of chopping and slicing. The flat of the blade makes a great tool for smashing garlic cloves or ginger, too.
