Sold OutBrilliant knife, exactly what I needed. Lovely edge on it. Makes quick work of a whole chicken.
Exactly what I was looking for. Needed something to handle big tasks and this delivers. The steel seems good quality, still looks new after a month of use. Handle is comfortable even during long prep sessions.
It's an okay knife. Does the job but nothing special. I guess for the price I can't complain too much. The handle feels a bit cheap in person compared to the pictures.
Got this to replace my old cheap cleaver and wow, what a difference. The weight is perfect, just heavy enough to power through chicken bones but not tiring to use. The sandalwood handle feels great in the hand, looks way more expensive than it is. Been using it for a month now and it's still super sharp.
Really solid cleaver, especially for the money. The steel holds an edge well and I love the look of the handle. My only minor thing is I wish the blade was a tiny bit taller, just a personal preference for how I grip it when doing heavy chopping. Still, it's a great knife and I use it all the time.
I was a little skeptical because of the low price but this knife is solid. The balance is good, not too handle heavy. I've used it to chop through beef ribs and it didn't even blink. Arrived really well packaged.
Cant believe how good this knife is for the price. The hammered finish actually works, stuff doesn't stick to it like my old knife. I use it for everything from breaking down big roasts to smashing garlic. Handle is comfortable, no hot spots. Arrived really quick too.

I’m very satisfied with this knife. It’s sharp, well-balanced, and makes food prep much easier. The blade is precise and cuts through ingredients cleanly, though I noticed it does require regular sharpening to maintain its edge. The handle is well-designed and comfortable, though I think it could be slightly more cushioned for better comfort during extended use. Overall, it’s a high-quality knife that performs well in the kitchen, even if it does need a bit of maintenance.
