Cleaver Knife

In contrast to other kitchen knives, the cleaver has an especially tough edge meant to withstand repeated blows against meat and bone. This is accomplished by using a softer steel and thicker blade – a harder steel and thinner blade will fracture more readily. the knife's design, like a hatchet or axe, relies on its weight to cut efficiently.
In fact, the presence of a "razor-edge" on a cleaver can be counterproductive as it will rapidly degrade with use.

Sculptor’s Whet Stone - How to use them

These stones can be used to sharpen most sculptor's tools. The large concave stones sharpen the outside edges; the small convex stones sharpen inside edges. The illustration at the upper left shows how a stone is used. Sharpening motion is eliptical, i.e., back-and-forth and side-to-side simultaneously. Using the stone in this manner has the advantage that much larger tools may be sharpened than the size of the groove indicates.

Because Japanese stones are soft, their shapes may be changed using 80 - 120 grit wet-or-dry sandpaper. This is especially useful if you wish to use the convex stones to sharpen the inside of a V-tool, fo
