The band saw, on the other hand, gives chops of exact, repeatable thickness, without splinters and without physical effort, which is what is needed when whole racks are portioned daily. Most butcher&#8217;s shops have both and choose according to the day&#8217;s volume.<\/p>\n<p>For safety, the cleaver requires a firm surface \u2014block or thick board\u2014, a decisive blow from the elbow and the free hand out of the line of impact. Keeping the tool in good condition and training whoever uses it is the employer&#8217;s obligation under Spanish <strong>Royal Decree 1215\/1997<\/strong> on work equipment.<\/p>\n<h2>What is supplied<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>One Arcos 26 cm cleaver with blue handle.<\/li>\n<li>NITRUM stainless steel blade with ergonomic injected PP handle.<\/li>\n<li>Bernad\u00ae advice on the range of bone-cutting tools.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Bernad\u00ae after-sales service<\/h2>\n<p>At <strong>Jos\u00e9 Bernad, S.L.<\/strong> we have our own workshops and after-sales service to respond quickly to any issue with your equipment.

Choppers are more versatile and usually heavier, geared to thick bone and butchering work.<\/p>\n<h3>26 or 28 cm?<\/h3>\n<p>The 26 cm is more manageable and comfortable at the counter; the 28 cm adds reach and a little more inertia in the blow, which helps with large racks. The choice depends on the type of piece usually worked.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the coloured handle for?<\/h3>\n<p>It makes it easier to identify the tool and assign it to an area or type of product within the processing room. In establishments with a colour code in place, having the cleaver in the corresponding colour helps ensure it does not end up in the wrong place.<\/p>\n<h3>How is the edge maintained?<\/h3>\n<p>With a robust edge, not a fine one: a cleaver that is too sharp chips at the first blow against bone. It is honed when it starts to bounce instead of going in, always respecting the original factory angle.<\/p>\n<h3>Can it be machine washed?<\/h3>\n<p>The injected polypropylene handle withstands up to 120-130 \u00b0C and has no joints where product can build up, so it copes well with cleaning. Dry the blade to avoid residual moisture where it rests.<\/p>\n<h2>Other bone-cutting tools<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiendabernad.com\/en\/producto\/arcos-28-cm-red-cleaver\/\">Arcos
