CutluxeCleaver Knife - 7" Meat Cleaver, Butcher Knife for Meat Cutting – German Steel Blade, Full Tang, Ergonomic Handle Design – Artisan Series

I've been wanting to add a cleaver to my kitchen tools for a long time. After impulse buying a used low end cleaver with a damaged blade I was happy to find this hybrid cleaver/chefs knife option. I added it to my cart from my "wish list" when its already low price dropped in advance of Black Friday. I received it quickly - in time for Thanksgiving prep on Wednesday. Wow! It's beautifully and carefully packaged. I especially appreciated the packaging care because It's really sharp! It was a pleasure chopping 12 pounds of root vegetables and crushing 4 heads of garlic with its sharp and yet broad blade. I treated the knife with care because it's so much sharper than the chefs knife I've used for 40 years. The full tang design seems like one that will last me a lifetime. A small detail that caused me to choose the hybrid knife over the traditional cleaver is the hole near the top of its blade. I have a rack over my kitchen island from which I hang all of my frequently used kitchenware. I am happy to have this new knife hanging (for its sake and my safety) close at hand but out of the way.

Well made super sharp and an excellent value. Going to buy a set of their steak knives

Wow. Great craftsmanship. Stays sharp for a long time.

I have 3 cutluxe knives now. This one is great for all jobs. Blade has held up well to cutting vegetables and meat. I will need to hone soon as I have butchered 2 prime rib roasts and 2 pork butts. The handle is comfortable. The overall weight is good. It is not flimsy. It is balanced when cutting. I will keep purchasing these knives.

Good product. Well made. Sharp and does the job. If you like cleavers, and I do, this is a good one.

Great knife highly recommended.Cuts vegetables perfectly and the knife itself is well waited and balanced

I like the sharpness and hefty feel of this knife. Perfect to chop open fresh coconuts. I bought a few "Butcher Knives" before but didn't like the weight or lack of it. This is a good quality nice knife for the price.

1. the knife is SHARP2. it has the perfect weight and size3. it has a square handle that your hand can actually grip TIGHTLYI actually bought it for cutting veggies, not meat and it works better than the Global clever for cutting veggies...be careful, it is SHARP.
