## Description

desertcart.com: Dalstrong Meat Cleaver Knife-4.5"-Shogun Series ELITE - Razor Sharp - Japanese Steel - Black Handle - Heavy Duty Gift Knife Professional - Vacuum Heat Treated - w/Sheath : Home & Kitchen

Review: Leave It To Cleaver - What a beaut. I really admire the hammered look of this cleaver & how razor sharp the blade has remained. Typically I prefer using the other Dalstrong knives for prep work or the use of global knives, but I find that I'm drawn to using this for slicing veggies or cutting sections of meat. My wife & I have been putting it through the ringer & I have yet to break out the whetstones to sharpen it. I actually prefer to use a ceramic sharpening rod to keep the edge sharp instead of using a steel rod. The ceramic, upon my experience, removes more material & makes maintaining the sharpness much easier. The cleaver has the right amount of heft so you can bring it down with force to dissect a chicken & manage a firm grip around the handle while doing so. Beautiful piece of craftsmanship & is highly functionable for everyday use in the kitchen. Very pleased with our purchase.
Review: A lot of fun to use, great for veggies and boneless meat - Pros: When people like the Brothers Green talked about how great cleavers were, I didn't know just how great until this knife arrived. This is a really sweet knife to use for chopping large and small vegetables alike. For the large ones, having a very wide, straight edge for a consistent cut angle is really nice. And scooping up a ton of chopped veggies onto this big, honkin' blade before throwing them all into a pan or salad bowl was even more satisfying than I had anticipated. "Cons": There was a small issue with the blade grind, but their customer service promptly fixed it. And despite having a wider grind angle than advertised, it still cuts very well. I used this cleaver to cut a bunch of boneless pork, and this cleaver sliced right through all of it like a champ. Also, I think the wider grind angle for a knife this heavy is a good call anyway. But yeah, these are the only two nitpicks I could find. If you're going to be cutting through bone, I'd get one of their German steel cleavers. Otherwise, get this knife and enjoy using it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Cleaver
*by M***A on September 6, 2017*

This is an amazing Cleaver. It comes in a wonderful solid, well made gift/keepsake box. The Cleaver itself is strong and sturdy. The Cleaver chops vegetable, fruits and meat very well. This cleaver makes prepping for dinner much faster and more efficient. The Cleaver is top quality. Besides being very beautiful the cleaver works very, very well. The Cleaver is easy and comfortable to hold in your hand and chops every item I have tried very quickly. The Cleaver is nicely stored in the shield case that comes with it, this keeps it from getting banged up and an extra layer of safety when not in use. I would highly recommend this Cleaver it is the best I have ever had.
