Got this for breaking down chicken and joints. Its a nice looking knife and the leather sheath is a nice touch but honestly for £45 I expected a bit more from the blade. It cuts ok but nothing special, had to put a better edge on it after a few uses. The sandalwood handle is comfy enough but feels a bit small in my hand. Probably fine if you just want a pretty cleaver but as a proper workhorse it’s just ok.

Bought this for my dad as a gift and he said it’s decent but hasn’t replaced his old faithful. The hammered finish does help with meat not sticking which is good. Blade holds an edge ok but not as long as he’d like. Leather sheath is nice quality. Its not bad, just not worth the price maybe.

Absolutely chuffed with this. Used it to joint a whole chicken and it went through like butter, the hammered finish genuinely helps stop bits sticking. Sandalwood handle feels lovely in the hand and the leather sheath is a nice touch. Arrived next day too. Cracking bit of kit.

Really solid knife, done a few pork shoulders with it no trouble. Only thing is the handle is a bit chunky for my hands so I find it slightly awkward after a while, but that’s just me. Edge out the box was decent and the leather sheath is a nice touch. Would still say get it if you need a cheap cleaver.

Got this for me dad for his birthday and he’s well chuffed. Used it to joint a whole lamb shoulder and it went through like butter. The hammered finish actually does help stop stuff sticking, which I was a bit sceptical about. Sheath is proper leather too, not that plasticky rubbish. Great knife for the money.

bought this for my husband for his birthday, hes over the moon. used it to joint a lamb shoulder and said it was effortless. nice weight to it, not too heavy. came well packaged as well.

I bought this after my old cleaver handle cracked. This one feels much more sturdy. The hammered texture is a godsend, no more potato sticking. Would buy again.

Cant fault the blade, its brilliant. The leather sheath is nice but the fit is a bit too tight, struggles to go in smoothly. Small thing, but stops me giving 5. Knife itself is spot on.
