Non-stick Cleaver Knife 7-inch, Chinese Chef's Knife for Kitchen, High Carbon German Stainless Steel Vegetable Chopping Knife, China Chopper | CaiDao, Ergonomic Handle, Gift Boxed (7" Meat Cleaver)

sharp and comfortable to use

The media could not be loaded. Holy wow! We'd been using basic knives from Target before and when one finally broke we decided to finally get a really good set of knives. These are not only a great price and attractive looking but from the moment they came out of the box we knew we had something special.First we did the paper test and sliced smoothly through a piece of thick paper. Then we went all Fruit Ninja. Watermelon? Cleaved in two with one fell stroke. Banana? Mid air slice right across the middle. Oranges? Wedged in under 10 seconds for easy packing into kids' lunches. Salami? Slices so thin you can't even see them!Just be sure to pay attention to what you're doing or you might just cut off a finger without realizing it!See the attached video if you don't believe me!Disclaimer: No food was wasted in the making of the video. All sliced objects were part of a delicious lunch.

First, I was skeptical of what the quality would be (for under US 30) as many of the hammered surface knives are quite expensive.....I am pleased to report the quality is way beyond expectations. Seams are so tight together among the parts of the handle there is no gaps or "sloppy" binding.....it is immaculate. The cutting edge is very sharp although I may hone it on a 5000 grit stone for even more sharpness. The cutting edge is also nicely shaped for a chopping and rocking motion as well as slicing. It is almost like a cross between a cleaver and a chef knife shape. I really like the feel of the handle and the weighting of the blade- balance point is right in front of the handle so it is not blade or handle heavy to use, right in the middle. The materials are top quality. I would point out the blade is 6.75 inches at the widest cutting portion. Overall a spectacular knife at an unbelievable price. If I could give it 6 stars I would!!

Good value and Impressive for the cost of the knife. Weight (12 oz) feels good and distributed well for chopping vegetables and light bone applications. The handle appears to be a single tang. Craftmanship; there is what I would consider a minor flaw in fit of the handle to the knife itself. It has an edge you can feel if you run your fingernail to the edge. Overall score is four stars as a five star would have to be flawless, but from a value perspective it is five stars no question. Outstanding value.

I bought a more expensive, authentic, and best reviewed knife, and this one has beat it in every category except size. I was worried the size wouldn't be big enough to use the side for transferring, but it is appropriate - the other was simply too large and heavy to handle properly. This one is as beautiful as it looks online, doesn't have an obnoxious logo, the handle has a good grip, and it comes fresh from the box RAZOR SHARP. I simply touched it against my hand through the plastic and it cut straight through to my skin. I later accidentally cut off the tip of my pinky. A strange thing to say for a positive review but somehow impressive, and had it been a duller knife it wouldn't have healed together so well. I mean it when I say practice good knife safety when upgrading to fine knives.

I looked through a whole bunch of reviews before deciding on this knife. For me I needed something that was going to be super sharp and felt good and balanced in my hand. If you’re somebody who is shopping for this kind of knife then you’re probably looking for something similar. You need to remember that this knife and the metal it’s made out of needs to be up kept with regular maintenance. If you’re trying to do that and be respectful to the knife it will take care of you. This knife is an absolute joy to use I would recommend it to anyone looking at this product

This knife is a great buy! Even for the price without any promotions, this knife is totally worth it. It just screams quality and efficiency. The knife may be a little on the heavy side for a small population of it's users but it is a CLEAVER after all. The blade is insanely sharp and is obviously well-made, from the carbon steel blade to the wood handle. This is an excellent gift idea for anyone! I've been looking for a cleaver for quite awhile and this is it! There are so many shiet cleavers on the market right now with plastic handles and dull within a few uses. Not this one! Get this and be satisfied for the rest of your life! This is premier shiet! The box it comes in is pretty classy too for a $30 knife!

Love the knife but disappointed with the quality of the clever. I used it to chop the lamb rib and damaged it after the third chop!!! I used it on the steak and cut easily and beautifully. I am returning it and getting a replacement. I think this clever is defective and that particular part of the blade is thinner than usual.
