For the pirate named Cleaver, see Cleaver (pirate).

A cleaver is one of the seventeen sword types available to players in the game. It is produced at iron mongers. On subscription oceans, the cleaver may only be used by subscribers.

The cleaver has poor sprinkles and strikes that easily form blocks for the opponent. The pattern is dominant in one color which enables easy board clears with little to no breakers.

Consequently -despite its price tag- the cleaver is a poorly performing sword that should be avoided.
