Here we have a F.Dick Chinese style cleaver and a J.A.Henckels of the same type.
They look nearly identical, some much so that I think they could have been made by the same company and re-branded. Such a thing was not uncommon in Solingen back in the day.
Both have 8 inch blades, the images' perspectives just make one look a bit longer. The ferrules and the handles look very similar, and both have a nice mirror polish to the blade which I believe to be original. Both even have (or had) the same color paint on the handles.
Weird. Just happened to stumble across these during ebay searches.
