Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Heavy Duty Meat Cleaver (8" long x 4" wide)
Customer Review: Was my utility knife when I was a chef
Summary: 4 Stars
Great cleaver. Takes a razor edge but doesn't hold it as well as a higher end German knife (much less a Shun, japanese). This thing will replace your 8-10" chef knife if you let it. If you can handle the weight this puppy does it for you. You can chop, slice, mince, cleave, scoop, turn, beat and even use it as a spatula. As a line chef this was my go to during busy rushes, allowing me to perform a myriad of tasks with just one tool. Keep your steel handy though, the cleaver takes a great edge but is soft and needs frequent, light steeling on a fine steel to avoid having to hone it after heavy use....Customer Review: Great for chopping but discolors quick
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fantastic, heavy cleaver: chops off heads, feet, and body parts quickly and efficiently. However it quickly becomes obvious that the money saved was in the quality of the metal. It will very quickly rust and discolor from blood and other liquids. No big deal. Just scrub it off, wash it, dry it, and its ready for use again. This is its only weakness I've noticed in the short time I've had one.Customer Review: Too heavy
Summary: 3 Stars
I didn't realize how heavy this was..and it will be hard for me to use. I wanted a chopper for all purpose use, and this one will be only for maybe cutting meat and chicken.Customer Review: meat clever
Summary: 3 Stars
good for the price. hard to keep clean. Rusts easily so must be dried immediately.Customer Review: Fooled by positive reviews, I'm afraid.
Summary: 1 Stars
An astonishingly inferior product-- the blade is comically soft. Used it to chop up the smaller bits of our Xmas turkey carcass for soup, and the blade just bent and dented completely on very small, very SOFT bones (bones which a mat-knife cut through easily). It is rendered completely unusable for anything, and appears to be too narrow a blade edge to sharpen properly. Ohhhhh, the low price connected to the glowing reviews should have been a dead giveaway. . . No, do not buy this product-- just don't, really.
