In a professional butchery environment, few tools take as much punishment as bone saws and cleavers. From cutting through thick beef ribs to separating lamb shoulders and slicing frozen carcasses, these tools must deliver power, precision, and durability—day in and day out.

Whether you're running a meat shop, supermarket, hotel kitchen, or a commercial meat processing facility, having the right cutting equipment for bones is essential to maintain productivity, hygiene, and operator safety.

At Mariot Kitchen Equipment dubai, we specialize in providing premium-grade butchery equipment and machines across the UAE and GCC. In this article, we highlight the best options for heavy-duty bone saws and cleavers, and how to choose the right ones for your operation.

Why Bone-Cutting Tools Must Be Top-Quality

Bone cutting is demanding work. Using the wrong tool—or a poor-quality one—can lead to:

• Operator fatigue or injuries
• Jagged, unclean cuts that damage meat quality
• Excessive bone dust (which affects hygiene and presentation)
• Faster wear-and-tear or blade breakage
• Slowdowns in production

That’s why professionals choose equipment engineered specifically for bone and frozen meat—built to withstand constant use while delivering clean, efficient cuts.

Best Commercial Bone Saws for Heavy-Duty Cutting

1. Mariot Electric Meat Bandsaws

For volume-driven butchery operations, electric bandsaws are the backbone of efficient bone cutting. Mariot offers a range of floor-standing and countertop bandsaws built from food-grade stainless steel, with advanced safety and cleaning features.

Key features:

• High-torque motors (750W–1500W) for smooth, powerful cutting
• Precision blade guides for accurate cuts with minimal bone dust
• Adjustable thickness control for custom portioning
• Safety interlock switches and emergency stop buttons
• Removable blade and waste trays for easy cleaning
• Anti-slip feet and ergonomic work platforms

These saws are ideal for cutting frozen beef, lamb, poultry, and fish bones. For extra control, our saws feature blade tension adjustment knobs and push blocks to protect the operator’s hands.

2. Manual Bone Saws (Handheld)

If you're working in a smaller setup or processing specific cuts by hand, manual bone saws offer a cost-effective and precise option.

Recommended uses:

• Field butchering or mobile meat services
• Small-scale operations with limited power access
• Trimming frozen bones where detail matters

Look for saws with:

• Stainless steel blades that resist rust and stay sharp longer
• Comfort-grip handles that reduce hand fatigue
• Quick-release blade tensioners for fast replacement

Mariot stocks German and Italian-made manual bone saws designed for ergonomic use and long service life.

Best Cleavers for Heavy-Duty Butchery Work

1. Heavy Carbon Steel Cleavers

When it comes to cleaving through joints, bones, and cartilage, weight matters. Our heavy-duty cleavers are made from forged carbon steel with hardened edges to handle bone strikes without chipping.

Features to look for:

• 7 to 9-inch blades with a full tang design
• Thick, balanced heads for momentum and control
• Non-slip grip handles (wood or high-density polymer)
• Hanging holes for easy storage
• Hand-honed blades for durability

These cleavers are suitable for splitting carcasses, breaking down poultry, and general-purpose butchery where powerful strikes are required.

2. Stainless Steel Bone Choppers

Stainless steel cleavers are ideal for kitchens where frequent sanitation is needed. They're corrosion-resistant, easier to clean, and maintain a sleek look in open prep environments like hotel kitchens or supermarket counters.

We supply professional-grade stainless cleavers from Europe and Asia, with perfect blade-to-handle balance for fatigue-free operation.

3. Specialty Cleavers for Precision Work

Some tasks require more finesse than power. For deboning poultry or small animals, we also carry narrow, lightweight cleavers for tasks that require sharpness and agility rather than sheer force.

How to Choose the Right Bone Saw or Cleaver

Consider the Volume

If you're processing meat in high volumes daily, an electric bone saw is a must. Manual tools may slow you down and lead to inconsistent results. For light to moderate use, high-quality hand tools may be sufficient.

Match the Tool to the Task

• Frozen meat and large carcasses: Use electric saws or heavy cleavers
• Chicken or small joints: Use manual bone saws or narrow cleavers
• Bone-in steaks: Use slicers with bone-grade blades

Look for Safety Features

When dealing with powerful tools, safety is non-negotiable. All Mariot bone saws come with:

• Blade guards
• Emergency shut-off systems
• Safety switches that prevent operation when open

Our cleavers feature secure-grip handles to prevent slippage during repetitive cuts.

Prioritize Hygiene and Easy Cleaning

Choose tools made from 304 stainless steel or food-safe coated carbon steel. Equipment should be easy to disassemble and sanitize. Mariot’s electric saws feature removable blade guides and waterproof housings.

Caring for Your Bone Saws and Cleavers

Proper maintenance ensures longevity and safety:

• Sharpen blades regularly to maintain clean cuts and reduce stress on the motor or wrist
• Lubricate saws and hinges using food-safe oils
• Clean after every use, especially near blade tracks and handles
• Inspect handles and grips for cracks or wear
• Store cleavers in sheaths or on magnetic boards to protect edges and prevent injuries

We offer replacement blades, sharpening services, and cleaning accessories to help keep your tools in peak condition.
