    Got this for my husband’s birthday and he’s over the moon with it. He used it to break down a whole chicken and said it went through the joints like nothing. Sheath is proper leather too, not that flimsy stuff.

    Ok so I’ve had this knife for about three weeks now, bit of an impulse buy but I’m well chuffed. The sandalwood handle feels lovely in the hand, nice bit of weight to it. Took it on a camping trip and prepped a big pork shoulder, the hammered finish does actually help stop bits sticking to the blade. Still sharp after a fair bit of use. Came next day as well which was a bonus.

    Really impressed with this knife. Arrived quick and very well packaged. The edge out the box is sharp enough to shave with. Been using it for a couple weeks now mostly on chicken and veg, the hammered finish means stuff just falls away. Sandalwood handle is comfortable and looks great on the rack.

    Got this for me dad for his birthday and hes proper chuffed with it. The blade is heavy but in a good way, you can feel the quality. Used it to break down a pork shoulder and it went through like butter, the hammered finish actually does stop the meat sticking which I was sceptical about. The sandalwood handle is lovely and smooth, feels nice in the hand. Sheath is proper leather too, not that cheap plastic stuff. For 45 quid this is a steal honestly.

    Ok so I’ve been after a decent cleaver for a while and this one caught my eye because of the leather sheath. Blade is 5Cr15MoV which is decent for the money, holds an edge well after a few weeks of daily use. I mostly use it for veg prep actually, it’s surprisingly nimble for a cleaver. The sandalwood handle is really comfortable, has a nice warmth to it. Only thing is it’s a bit heavier than my old one but I actually prefer that now. Came well packaged too, no complaints.

    Bought this for me dad, he does a lot of BBQ. Took it out the box and the weight of it is proper solid. Used it to break down a whole chicken and it went through the joints no bother at all. Hammered finish actually does stop stuff sticking which I was sceptical about. Sheath is a nice bonus too, looks the part.

    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.
