Kitory Meat cleaver, Effort Saving Kitchen Knives, Forged Professional Chef Knife, Handmade full tang chef knife, 2024 Gifts

My knife arrived with zero issues! No "rust". No "sharp handle". No "loose grips".It is quite sharp and with out defect. i have a few 300 dol Japan chef knives that are sharper that i bought from the swordsmith's inperson. this knife is not to that grade but is a very well-made attempt.it is NOT a BONE CLEVER. it is great for meat or veg and does the job well if used for that assigned task.I LOVE THE HANDLE DESIGN! it allows you to get handweight/pressue OVER the chopping, much like the inuit ULU, but with the advantage of sliding hand back on the wood handle for lighter chopping.id reject the neg reviews: either they don't know how to use a clever OR they recieved a rare dud.

Bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it and uses it almost every day. Excellent quality, easy to hold and use even for my arthritic fingers, stays sharp. Looks great on display in the kitchen, too

Great knife for the price. Has a good edge on it right put of the box. Also takes a good edge when sharpened. Knife has a good feel and balance to it even though it's fairly light weight. It's one of my daily knives in the kitchen.

Nice knife once sharp.

So our dear departed friend, Anthony Bourdain, said one only needs two knives; the biggest kitchen knife you can handle and an offset serrated knife ( which I also purchased here; the Mercer culinary millenia 9" offset wavy edge bread knife (which I have not used yet)). So I got this knife as my kitchen knife because I love the cleaver style.It's pretty awesome...I've nearly lost a fingertip twice! That's gotta be a good knife.

Great knife but must be promptly dried or rust will form. The rust is easy to remove but means it has to be washed again. It does cut really well though.

I love to cook and I love cool knives to use. Adds to the fun. Very good, very sharp knife. Lead to my son getting me a whole set for my birthday

Please do yourself the favor and do not purchase this knife. The look is unique but it was covered in rust. I returned the first one and when the second one came in it was also covered in rust.

Could be sharpened better

Pas hyper tranchant mais parfait pour hacher.

Seem well made but Not heavy enough for us.

hanle not riveted tight so loose and rattling this chinese restaurant menue trifold paper about 1/32inch thick easily fits loose handle crack both sides very poor workmanship avoid this make

The blade was bent. The edge profile was terrible. The handle is misaligned and has gaps. The coating comes off easily.
