Hey Everyone,
Been using a CCK 1303 for a bit now and really have taken a liking to the Chinese Cleaver style, for some reason I find myself reaching for it more than most of my gyutos. I love how crazy thin this cleaver is and the way it just effortlessly falls through food. That said, I'm interested in trying a cleaver more towards the upper end to see how much performance increase I really get out of it. The main one's I'm looking at are
Sugimoto #6
Suien VC
Ginga Swedish Stainless (BlueWay since Jon is totally out of the Western Handle style one's)
Don't know how many people might have owned these or at least two of them to compare but I would love to hear some impressions on them especially compared to the CCK. Stainless vs. Carbon doesn't matter from a person preference perspective. Performance matters more than a bit of added maintenance but that said I'm open to any of these.
FYI I have read Andy777's cleaver review stuff and while it does mention some stats about the Sugi and Suien it doesn't really talk about either relative to the other aside from that he likes the Suien for value cleaver for the masses so to speak....
Thanks!
