Sharp Out of the Box, Even Better After Sharpening.

This cleaver is a beast in the kitchen. It came sharp right out of the box and only got better after the first sharpening. It glides through boneless meats and vegetables with zero effort. The wide blade isn't just for show, it's super useful for scooping and transferring chopped ingredients. The raw, forged look gives it serious character. If you’re used to Western knives, this is a refreshing upgrade. Just remember to rinse and dry it immediately after use to keep it in top condition.

A great "little" knife.

I haven't had time to test this knife for long, but for the little i've tested it, it is a great little tool, on the cheaper side. Of course, for that price, fit and finish isn't perfect (which means one needs to be careful not to wet the bolster or the butt too much, as water can get in), but its straight, great to use, looks good in my opinion, and cuts like a razor.
