The Cleaver Knife is a melee weapon available in PAYDAY 2, added with the release of the Hotline Miami DLC. It becomes available for use at reputation level 34.

Overview

The Cleaver Knife is a large kitchen cleaver and shares many similarities with the Compact Hatchet.

Tips

• Players deal more damage per second with this weapon by attacking as quickly as possible, rather than fully charging attacks.
• If a player wishes for more damage, it is recommended that they get Berserker, Pumping Iron and Bloodthirst Aced from the Brawler skill tree.
• If a player wishes for more knockdown, use Martial Arts Aced.

Trivia

• A similar cleaver is wielded by the Biker in Hotline Miami.
• There is a bit of Japanese text on the Cleaver that reads: "秘密以内 - スウェーデン" - "Secret Within - Sweden".
