This cleaver cuts through bones, thick root vegetables and large pieces of meats. While I don’t use it often, it serves its purpose and I am glad I have it when needed. Makes easy work of chopping up a slab of ribs, slicing squash or watermelon, and taking a chicken apart.

This cleaver knife does a great job for chopping and breaking bones on variety of meats. It was my first own Henckels knife. It feels very comfortable on the handle. I am very satisfy with this purchase, very good value, no compliant.

I purchased this product for on my own nefarious purpose of making Asian style chicken soup. The bones are a huge part of the soup and I was destroying my conventional knives to cut a whole chicken. When my gave it a try, she became a true believer of high quality brand name products by Henckels. She had been using standard-issue asian made cleavers, which will last a lifetime, sharpen with little issues, and get the job done. But after giving this cleaver a whirl, was thoroughly impressed with the fact that she did not have to use as much muscle and the blade never dulled. If this isn’t a worthy testimonial, I don’t know what is. I mean, she’s my mom, she can cook!

This meat cleaver works wonderfully. It has enough weight and sharpness to easily cut through your meat. I love that this value line is made in Spain and not China.

I love using this cleaver for getting through bones in meat. I do wish it was a little heavier so that I could get the knife would do some of the work for me, but I did not have the budget to get the one that has some heft to it. Even with that said, I think this is a great knife that I would recommend to anyone who would like to try to butcher more meat at home.

This cleaver makes quick work of all my big chopping needs. Whether im breaking down a chicken or cutting up a large bunch of turnips this is my go to. The German steel blade is very sharp and is very easy to resharpen. I have a lot of confidence in the construction. The size is perfect…..so many cleavers are too big and harder to control. Not with this one.

Can take a chicken apart in minutes as well as a pork shoulder. Strong handle with riveting means no breaking points. Love the curved angle of the blade.

Excellent for cutting through bones and tendons. Easily break down a chicken or slab of ribs. Comes in handy for cutting hard squash and smashing garlic.

I don’t know how I managed without one. It fits nicely in my hand. The blade is so nice and heavier across the top. It makes the job so easy

Love working with this cleaver. Great for hacking through hard bones and caucuses, as well as chopping, and dicing vegetables. Made in Spain with high carbon German steel which makes it well priced too.
