This is similar to what I use 90% of the time when I cook, regardless of cuisine. Idk about the steel grade or whether it's good, but it's probably better that what I've been using most of my life where they don't even tell you the type of steel. And the price is not bad.

8" is OOS Out of stock

Here is a smaller, lighter one for beginners $26.92.

    80Cr13 is definitely better than what you get from the cheap knives at kmart and such.
    I forgot what the cheap ones use, but its worse than 4Cr13. Though, what they use is basically bottom of the barrel so not exactly hard to beat

    I have been using their vegetable (all purpose) cleaver for 3 years and can verify that the sharpness pretty much stays the same.
    Just need honing rod and it should keep you going for a long time.
    This is their bone chopping cleaver so it won't chip when you chop bone but it will be quite a bit heavier than the all purpose one

    • rosebank on 22/05/2023 - 10:20

        yeah depends on the user. My gf found my vegetable cleaver heavy when it's almost half the weight of this one. Had to get a 100g santoku to keep the missus happy

            @rosebank: I bought my first Santoku knife about a year ago, I don't know how I got through life without one before it (although I wish I read more reviews, handle doesn't feel particularly nice). Time to get a cleaver, I guess, if it's even better!

            • rosebank on 22/05/2023 - 11:18

              @freefall101: Cleaver is a steeper learning curve than a santoku, but stick with it and once you get it, it's very rewarding. Then you can get rid of most of your knives.

      This is the style of knife almost exclusively used in Chinese kitchens. It is more versatile than people think as it can chop, cut, mince, pound, dice, etc. It can be used for bones and hard vegetables,but is still sharp enough for delicate cuts on soft vegetables or raw meat. It is great for picking up and transferring what you have cut up too.

      I have a few CCK cleavers from HK and they are excellent. I still like using other knives too, but you could easily use the cleaver all the time and if you were to only have one knife, it would be a good choice.

      • rosebank on 22/05/2023 - 11:44

        Yes, cleaver is the GOAT all-purpose knife.

          I read the comments for years, tried proper sharpening with a stone… Wasn't for me. This thing gets my knife sharp and I'm not gonna lose sleep over it wearing in my cheap bacarat knives over 10 years. It's been great for me.

      whetsone and honing steel

    • KonkyDong on 22/05/2023 - 11:21

      As been mentioned, whetstone and honing steel. But in particular a whetstone as that does the actual sharpening. Honestly if you can sharpen properly with a whetstone then your cheapest knife can be sharper than most in people's kitchens.

      For the frugal, I bought a $3 small cleaver and a $3 whetstone from Daiso. Took me a few tries but the knife is sharp enough for the paper test. Good enough for me.

      That dude looks like he's using a 10" carbon steel one. But yeah, go into any Chinese kitchen and it's all cleavers. Takes a while to learn but once you get it, it's very rewarding.

    • Xzobinx on 29/05/2023 - 03:59

      Bit late for a reply but might as well share my experience.
      I got both the shi ba zi zuo 8'' vegetable cleaver and kiwi cleaver 830
      kiwi is lighter and more comfortable in the hand. Really thin blade which gave the illusion that it was sharper at first but shi ba stayed sharp longer.
      The added weight of the shi ba made it easier to chop down harder stuffs.

      Honestly if you can get it for 15 bucks or less go for it.

    Good steel, good size, heavy enough for to my preference.
