We designed El Choppo for our friends who love to chop up carne and pollo asada, but it's also great as a general-purpose chef knife. All that surface area is excellent for scooping up your meat and veggies after chopping and slicing. El Choppo is made from AEB-L stainless steel heat treated to 61 HRC, which gives it a long-lasting, razor-sharp edge that is also extremely tough.  El Choppo features a 7.5" cutting edge, 3" height & .125" thickness at the spine which gives it some weight to get through your food with ease. The custom, handmade handle is crafted here in our shop from museum-quality, rare, highly figured Hawaiian Koa wood that has been stabilized to reduce shrinking and cracking. We get only the best, most beautiful Koa in the world. 

El Choppo makes a perfect kitchen companion when paired with our chef knife or bunka.
