ENOKING 7.5″ Cleaver Knife, Chef’s Knives – Hand Forged, German High Carbon Stainless Steel Butcher Knife with Full Tang Handle for Home Kitchen & Restaurant

I can only assume this German high-carbon steel began life as the remnants of a pre–World War II submarine prototype, later recovered through some clever global recycling program and reborn by master Chinese builders into this formidable tool. The full-tang handle, balance, and density are impeccable—this cleaver feels less like a kitchen knife and more like a purpose-built instrument. It sits perfectly in the hand, inspires confidence on the cutting board, and looks absolutely striking while doing it. Fit and finish are outstanding, especially at a price point that feels almost unbelievable for what you’re getting. Serious performance, serious aesthetics, and zero gimmicks. Hats off to everyone involved in bringing this knife to life—including the Amazon delivery hero who had it waiting at my door by sundown. Highly recommended.

This knife is super sharp and slices through meat like butter. I am so pleased at how excellent the quality is.

Nice and heavy haven’t used yet

First, the packaging is impressive- the box has a magnetic lid and the cleaver is secured in a velvet enclosure. The cleaver itself is real steel with a good weight to it and a lightly oiled. It’s razor sharp so be careful! Feels good in the hand, cuts through chicken breast like it’s air. Also looks great on my magnetic knife rack that I built. Can’t wait to use this for my BBQ’s! I would expect a cleaver of this quality to cost a lot more. Very happy with this purchase.

Heavy, substantial, cuts really easily, my husband brags about this knife and loves it!!
