I was so wowed when I got this! Yes it is big, it needs to be big (and heavy), it's a real cleaver meant for cutting meat and bone, nothing is going to slow this cleaver down! I grew up watching cooking shows and always wanted to get a big meat cleaver, but all the ones I found locally were small, lightweight and not meant for the kind of use I was going to give it. When I received this, I could feel how heavy it was before I ever opened the box, once I opened it I was blown over at the size and quality, my friends who were over visiting at the time were also impressed. It comes with a protective piece of rubber over the business end so it will make it to your front door without going through the packaging, I'm going to save mine so that it will not be dulled in storage in my knife drawer.
This cleaver is sharp, sturdy, heavy duty, it's what I would expect a real butcher to have and use, I am in culinary heaven! This feels so good in my hand, it's the real deal for serious cooks and chefs. #SLITZER #WrethaReviews
