Zelite Infinity Bull Butcher Knife - 10 Inch Professional Meat Cleaver - German High Carbon Stainless Steel Blade with Leather Sheath - Perfect for Butchers, Chefs & Home Cooking - Heavy Duty Meat Cutting, Breaking Bones & Food Preparation

Zelite Infinity Cleaver 7" - Executive-Plus Series is a great addition to my kitchen knives. Well balanced and super sharp cleaver that will not let you down.This is an excellent multipurpose cleaver. It performs as described on the Amazon’s website. I will keep my old cleaver around for rough jobs like chopping pork ribs.I bought this knife to impress my brother-in-law, who is a professional butcher. He wouldn't use it because the grip is too small, and becomes very slippery when blood gets on it. Still, the steel is amazing! I've been using it for a few months for cutting and trimming my smoker cooks. I just split some game hens last night and it went through them like butter. One or two VERY light strokes on the steel is all it ever takes to make this thing a hair shaver. I liked it so much much I purchased the matching chef's knife.I am impressed with how sharp this knife is straight out of the box. It is crafted very nicely. Finish is impressive. Balance is good. I like the wider blade compared to my 8" chef's knife. Don't for a minute think it is a butcher's knife capable of cutting bone. I made this mistake on some lamb bones in chops about 1/2 " at most. I then spent an hour repairing all of the nicks and chips in the cutting edge. I may never get the fine edge that came on it originally.But some other with a higher Rockwell number f you want to do some serious bone chopping. Stick to heavy veggies or hard to cut meat.Very sharp!!! Nice and hefty, just what I wanted.Nice quality and nice sheath.This is a beautifully crafted cleaver. I could not be happier. It is super sharp and has a very nice weight to it. I have used it to smash garlic, mince garlic and ginger root, chop carrots and onions, cut through bones in chickens. It is an awesome tool!Great for cutting large sizes of meat, handling balance an sharpness of knife impressive. HIGHLY RECOMENDAs an ex chef, I'm used to working with extremely sharp knives and paying the price for them too, not only monetary wise, but cuts also.I chose this to replace my old victorinox butchers knife (I gave my old one to my step son, sous chef with Mr Tom Kerridge as a present)It's certainly not a classical shaped butchers knife but cuts like a hot knife through butter.It's balanced and super sharp and for me works brilliantly. Highly recommendedBought this to cut myself stakes from joints of ribye.Very sharp and well balanced I put it down caught the handle with my elbow and it's spun 360 on work surface and caught my finger very impressed though was my own stupid fault I got cut.the best knife I've ever hadcuts meat like a paperis amazing ....now i can cook:)I used the beef to cut( it hard with a normal knife )100% recommendI will buy more than oneThanksAs always a quality product from zelite I now have 4 knives from them and wouldn’t buy anywhere else.Great knives hold edge reasonably well very easy to keep sharp
