Oh god. This will match so well with the kiritsuke gyuto that I just got. Someone buy this please!
You said will instead of would, fatal mistake
I dont know how much I like the rounded front. Kind of reminds me of a tall nakiri Im sure this is a monster!
SOME ONE BUY IT ARRGGHH!!!!
Well, I know which one I'd throw money at. I won't tell you which one, but it's made by B. Harner...no, no...too obvious. Butch H. Yeah, that's the ticket.
Sorry for the short question. Let me expand. Is this cleaver better in action than the Takeda, or does it outperform, or are they two totally different animals and Ill have to purchase both of them to find that out? Is this a good chopping cleaver that can handle a beating? I understand supporting the small guy over the smaller guy, but I also really like the Takeda for its J handle, and have been trying to step away from western handles.
These are both slicing cleavers, essentially the Asian equivalent of a chef knife. They would never be used for chopping bones or hard objects. These are very sharp and sometimes delicate instruments. some here love them more then chef knives and some feel that they are much more versatile. It takes some practice to be exceptional in it's use, but when you become proficient everything else becomes easier. You would be amazed at what some chefs can do with them. If you chop bones and other hard objects with this you face the possibility of not only chipping the edge, but possibly breaking the blade or worse yet hurting yourself.Sorry for the short question.

Ha! Felt the energy of your guys' responce there. Thank you for all of the input. I wish I could say I knew all that stuff but I didnt and now I do- muahaha. Good luck with the sale of this beautiful knife man. I figured spending $650 on knives this week is enough for me...still trying to pay off the engagement ring before proposing...
