Handmade Forging Kitchen Chef Knife Meat Cleaver Butcher Knife Vegetable Cutter with High Carbon Clad Steel (Black handle)

The knife has a good weight and holds wsb edge well. This thing is a beast. On quick pop with my palm and it cut cleanly through a pork rib bone without dulling or deciding the edge.Since it is high carbon steel you need to make sure to wash is and care for ut properly or else it will rust.

Was hesitant but pulled the trigger! Glad I did! Super sharp blade, has good weight to it and fits nice in my hands! I don’t think it was made by Mr. Miyagi But it’s a good alternative to the other knives like this!I normally don’t write reviews but decided to because that’s how I mainly base my purchases on.Now I feel like I’m cooking in the jungle like those ASMR cooking videos 🔪

The blade is exactly what I was looking for, heavy enough to take on bone, with enough edge retention to slice tomatoes paper thin. needed sharpening and some heavy elbow grease to get off some of the heavy scale (don’t remove it all, it’s your rust protection). I was not expecting the learning curve to be as steep as it was but with practice this knife and a nice paring knife will tackle everything in the kitchen. Also rust prevention is easy just make sure when working with anything acidic to wipe down your blade.

Get a sharpening stone and you won’t need to buy another BBQ knife again. Have had this for over two years and it’s still in awesome shape with daily use.

I love the raw aesthetic of this knife! And it’s super sharp too! Seems very authentic. I don’t know how to tell the difference between plate steel and forge shaped. Looks hand made - hope it’s the real deal.

This is a great addition to any kitchen. I can’t think of anything it can’t do. It looks very bulky and crude but it’s surprisingly maneuverable. When received the blade is covered with a powdery black coating to ward off rust. I used a steel wool scrubber to remove most of it fairly easily. This is carbon, non stainless steel, so it must be treated properly to avoid rust, similar to cast iron skillets. All you need to do is be sure it is dry after use and rub a bit of oil on it. I use canola and it works perfectly. Good purchase. I’m 72 years old so I’m sure my sons will get to fight over it!!!! And most likely my grandsons after them!!!

Very manly knife, but you need to know how to sharpen, because it doesn't come kitchen ready. I will probably relegate it to the camping crate, but I'm going to try to sharpen it good so I can use it more every day. Pretty heavy and solid, nice handle.

This knife is so sharp right out the package I looked at it and it cut me! The knife is so great!!!! It’s literally one of the best if not the best knife Ive purchased!!!Only down fall! It needs a nice leather sheath!
