CKTG Cleaver Saya
This wooden saya — the Japanese term for a knife sheath or blade scabbard — is designed to fit the cleavers we carry, providing safe, secure protection during storage or transport. Cleavers present a unique fit challenge due to their wide, rectangular blade profile and substantial height, which is why compatibility is tightly controlled: even small variations in blade thickness or geometry can affect how a cleaver seats inside a wooden saya.
For best results, we strongly recommend purchasing the knife and saya together so we can use your actual knife as a template and drill the pin hole for proper alignment. If you're purchasing this saya separately, please note the exact knife it's for in the Comments section of your shopping cart. We only sell sayas for knives we carry, as proper fit cannot be reliably guaranteed for knives we haven't handled. A black, tapered saya pin is included.
If a knife has a compatible saya, it will be shown and linked on that knife's product page. If no saya is listed, we don't carry one that fits — we recommend a felt blade guard instead.

I just picked up the Tabata blue # 2 Cleaver,
This fits that cleaver perfectly, it is a must if you have this cleaver, I’m sure it will fit the other cleavers on this website just as well. Wonderful product.

Fits my CCK Cleaver PerfectlyPosted By: Carlos

I bought this saya along with my CCK cleaver and I don't know what I would do without it. The CCK cleaver is insanely sharp, which can make it difficult to store in a safe place that won't cut your hand or damage the edge. This saya fits perfectly and allows me to place the knife anywhere without worrying. My only complaint is that pin that holds the knife inside can be a bit difficult to pull out, but after about a dozen times of pulling it in and out it eases up.

Best Chinese Stainless Cleaver Under $100Posted By: Scott Gee

Chinese cleavers are everyday working knives for everyday people. Although you can spend hundreds of dollars on a Japanese made Chinese cleaver, this Chinese made cleaver is SOOTB, has decent edge retention and is easy to maintain. I re-edged it to 20 degrees and no chipping so far. My family owned a Chinese restaurant so have spent a lot of time with a cleaver the only knife on my board. If you don't mind a little more maintenance, their carbon steel knives cut a little better. Highly recommended.

Great Saya for CCK Cleavers

I thought this was gimmicky at first but soon realized this was a must-have item to safely store the companion cleaver I bought. Much cheaper than the ER copay to have your fingers stitched back together. Does a fine job of preserving the edge of your cutting instrument.

I plan to keep my CCK Small Cleaver for a while, so I decided to get the saya as well. NOTE: the case is a loose fit, and this is intentional. I would've liked it to be a little bit more form fitting, but it protects the knife well.

I'm going to purchase this sayaPosted By: Tom Dickinson

I know that it wasn't designed for this and it will probably fit a little loosely, but I'm going to purchase this saya for my CCK Lil' Rhino cleaver. I need something to protect my blade on that knife and it looks like this will do it. Never disappointed when I buy from CKTG.
