DALSTRONG Cleaver Butcher Knife - 9" - Gladiator Series - "The Ravager" - Heavy Duty - Forged ThyssenKrupp High Carbon German Steel - Sheath Included - NSF Certified

In my opinion, this Cleaver is another piece of kitchen art. It is rather large, even though I've known it would be 9" when you hold it in your hands, it seems huge, but it's great, since it can handle almost My previous purchasing pattern was to buy cheap knives, but Dalstrong changed my mind about investing in quality. As if it were Christmas, it is as if I had received a gift like that, it's like opening a present. With its excellent weight and feel in your hand, this cleaver cuts through bone easily. The blade is sharp and easily cuts Raw food is what I feed my dogs and I chop up a lot of chicken, and it easily cuts through bigger bones with one stroke. This Gladiator of Cleavers from Dalstrong is a fantastic quality product and I highly recommend it.

The product was extremely unsatisfactory I had it for three months and chopped pork and chicken and never got it right. Bending the blade results in a damaged blade. The 55 Rockwell is not what it appears to be.

As a result, I received mine dull as a butter knife. There were no sharp sections on the blade that would allow me to cut I was a little disappointed.

Hacking bones with this blade is what it's for. Not a single other word. Any attempt to cut through anything will result in the blade cutting away from the object. Neither straight through nor straight ahead. The update is Our blade must have been defective, as the company determined after speaking with us. The company's customer service was excellent. A new knife was offered and the company kept in touch until our needs were met.

I think this is the best cleaver I have in my arsenal based on the quality of the tang and handle. Besides being good for cutting vegetables, it is small enough to trim meat, while also being heavy enough to act as I think it's the most versatile knife I've bought for the kitchen, in terms of dicing, slicing, etc. The only problem is that the handles are too small to fit the tang so the sharp edges stick out and I'm sorry to hear that.

Despite the fact that the blade cuts through chicken bones like butter, the edge holds up really well (see pictures). However, compared to standard kitchen knives, it is quite heavy and bulky, which makes it a good choice for butchering.

Nevertheless, the handle material on the knife is excellent! Although it has the potential to be a really beautiful knife, it did not appear to have gone to any trouble to haft the handle. As you grasp the knife handle, the metal tang is on top of and under the wooden handle material, so that there is a very sharp edge on top of and under the knife handle. I have found that his blade is not just annoying, he is so pronounced that you might actually cut your hand! If you have a belt grinder or you were willing to do it by hand, you could grind or sand the handle, basically doing the things It's difficult to finish the knife and get it back to its original The majority of people probably do not have the abrasives and polishes at home that are required to make the screw all match up after the hafting is finished. also want to add that the look of this knife is quite beautiful overall. I like that the handle is made from different It is the perfect material for kitchen use, which is wood laminate. It has the warmth and beauty of wood and will stand up to being wet all the time.

One final note, it is a beautiful Cleaver, but it is on the thin side. This may not be Because of this, it is able to accomplish a lot of tasks well. Cleaver can be used on vegetables or poultry in light-duty cases, though you should plan to use it on vegetables. The edge of the Cleaver might not be able to cut through chicken bones if you want to use it for this purpose. The thin edge of this screen is not necessarily bad, as it indicates that it will perform very well on other tasks thanks to its thin edge. When a knife manufacturer makes a knife, they need to select the task for which the knife is being designed
And whatever excels at one task will not excel In the end, I don't own the abrasives and polishes necessary for the handle to be completed correctly, so mine will go Although there may be potential here, there is still room for improvement. I would like to see if Dalstrong can make some improvements in the near future. I will likely check back in a couple years to see how they've fixed the manufacturing problems.

There's no doubt that this is a heavy one Cleaver for the job. This gets the job done quickly when cutting up a whole chicken or large meat chunk. When this kitchen powerhouse is in the kitchen, you can forget about bones. There is a slight difference in the handle on this knife compared to others in the Gladiator Series. Adding weight to it gives it the perfect balance and heft. On a large scale, this knife is also excellent for slicing, dicing, and chopping to bits. My favorite part of the wide blade is that I can scoop up food and transfer it from board to pot or pan with ease. The blade is the same high quality, and the knife is the same beautiful artwork that I have used on It is a purchase that anyone would be more than happy with.
