[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am new to this type of knife. We are a vegetarian family, so u prep and chop veggies every day. I love this knife so far. It might be my favorite. It is a bit heavy, probably needs Getting used to
This is a great addition to my cutlery collection. Great handle shape which fits comfortably in the hand. Not too heavy but has enough heft to slice and dice even the hardest carrot. German made, with a lifetime warranty. Use this for just about every chopping and dicing job in the kitchen. The blade is great for scooping up the finished product, and stays nice and sharp.
So many cleavers are too heavy and rely on the weight to force the blade through whatever im cutting. This one relies on the quality of the blade. German high carbon steel is known for its resilience and edge retention and that holds true here. The blade and handle are nice and light so i can quickly chop all of my veggies and it stays sharp for a long time. Its also easy to resharpen which can be difficult for lower end heavier cleavers.
Almost every customer grabbbed this Twin Signature 7" vegetable cleaver. The handle is comfortable, it contours to every cooks hand and the grip feels nice, will inspire you to cut more, and to cook more. It is dishwasher safe however it is advisable for handwashing to retain edge and protect this knife from harsh damage causing by dishwasher machine. An important note, dishwasher detergent is very abrasive, and along with the banging around that happens during a wash cycle, it will dull your knife.
