Outstanding!

Perfectly weighted and balanced in your hand, begging for action. This clever is worth every penny. Santoku, paring knife, and this awesome clever round out your repertoire in the kitchen and really are all you need for prepping just about anything short of pudding. Cooking.com has the best price on this Interweb thing (thanks again, Mr. Gore) for this particular item, too. I've gone through several game hens, enough chicken to feed an army [small Western-European army], and a fruit stand of cantelope - all without any indication of losing its edge (and a ceramic clever is ridiculously countertraditional, anyway). Great clever, great price, and the shipping was so fast that I'm wondering if they knew I was going to order it and had it prepped on their shipping/receiving dock...all around outstanding!

Great, fine sharp edge!

I compared this cleaver to the $60 version from Henckels. No comparison when it comes to sharpness and finish. Save your pennies up and get the real McCoy.

Wife says it is a great garlic press too, ;-).

Now THAT's a Cleaver!

My wife bought this for me and I'm very impressed with the quality.

i bought this cleaver for my husband on his birthday. I think it is the best present he could have gotten. we recived many compliments on the quality and durability of the knife. thank u food network for making my shopping experience easy and giving me a good quality product.

This cleaver is first class, but then of course it's a Henckel. I've been building my collection of Four Star Henckel knives for some time now and was delighted to see that Cooking.com had a sale on them so I've been having fun. I'd wanted a cleaver for years but they are so expensive. I couldn't resist when I saw this Four Star Henckel Cleaver at such a great price. It's perfectly weighted, fits the hand comfortably and is VERY sharp. I highly recommend it.
