Review on πŸ”ͺ XYJ Hand Forged Chef Knife: 8-inch High Carbon Steel Meat Cleaver with Razor Sharp Blade - Ideal for Kitchen Chefs! (Full Tang Handle & Leather Sheath) by Jessie Wright

Revainrating 3 out of 5

All in all a decent knife for the money.

For the price I wasn't expecting much when I bought this knife and it didn't exceed my expectations in the slightest. Like I said, I really like it. It cuts like a dream and I use it often to make cooking easier in the kitchen, slicing fruits and vegetables and meat. The knife is razor sharp and easy to sharpen, the steel is softer. The grip is blocky but not uncomfortable and fits most grips. After washing, it must be dried immediately, otherwise it will rust. The real downside to this knife was the fit and finish. When I first looked at it, I noticed the S-curve of the knife due to the sharpening! In use it hasn't affected the performance of the knife, for example if I don't need Julian Peppers they are perfect. There are gaps on the handle that can lead to future rust that you won't see. Overall I really liked this knife for the price. It's far from perfect and has its drawbacks, but it was cheap and a great general purpose training and camping knife that I'm not worried about anything happening to it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No performance
