Review on BLACK HAWK SERIES Meat Cleaver Butcher Knife 6", High Carbon Stainless Steel Pakkawood Handle - Wallop Chopper Knife For Bone With Gift Box by Marc Farrell

the presentation of this cleaver is very nice, well-boxed and wrapped. the finish and edge are good enough, but the scales (wooden side pieces) of the handle have either shrunk or were sanded too much, so that the tang and rivets are proud (protruding). the edges of these protrusions are extremely sharp and make holding the cleaver very uncomfortable and even possible leading to abrasion or cuts. A shame, since otherwise the knife is a great deal and beautiful to look at, just not usable as is.
