I'm writing this review after watching my husband go to town on the ribs he wanted to smoke. It scared me a bit but he had always wanted a meat cleaver so this is the one that was recommended. First of all... IT IS HEAVY, but I think that's the point, it has cut thru chicken bones like they were styrofoam, and judging by the smile on his face did some serious work on those rib bones. The Four star knives have always been the best , this has now been added to the collection!

perfect size and weight
I am very pleased with this cleaver. Too many cleavers rely on size and weight to force their way through bone and meat. This one relies on quality of material. The forged German blade is sharpened to the perfect angle. The quality of the steel keeps it sharp for a long time and is easy to maintain. The handle is very comfortable and the texture gives me confident in my grip while using it.

This great cleaver can chop through a chicken bone with the greatest of ease. It makes breaking down a chicken a simple, quick process. It has a lighter handle so it's not too heavy to use chopping larger vegetables, like cabbage or a hard squash.
Four Star is forged from high carbon German steel and made in Germany just like Pro so you get incredible sharpness, great edge retention and a knife that's going to last a lifetime.

Great cleaver
This cleaver is not as daunting in size, but still gets the job done of cutting through big pieces of meat, produce with little effort needed. With the Four Star, this is a little bit lighter of a knife in the handle, providing a nice weight to it. Also with the Sigmaforge aspect of the knife, this is a sturdy and durable cleaver. A great addition to any kitchen.

proven line
This is a tried and true line for last 40 years!! The 6" cleaver is an user friendly. Not too heavy to hold and the handle is smooth and comfortable. I like using this cleaver when I need to crush a lot of garlic and ginger for recipes. It is an obvious choice for hacking through bone , but also thin and maneuverable for slices large quantities of vegetable and meats. Approachable, easy to handle . Fits nicely in my butcher block!

useful tool
I enjoy having the right tools for the kitchen job so I'm glad I have my cleaver for those times I want to cut up a chicken or chop larger cuts of meat. It also has come in handy for melons and harder vegetables like squash. Because it is forged it feel sturdy using it for these hefty cutting tasks. Like all Four Star knives this one will retain its sharp edge longer than other knives due to the high quality steel.

Key Design Features Make This A Solid Choice
Although most cleavers of this general type and level of quality seem almost identical, this particular cleaver has some features that make it stand out from the others. F
The molded plastic handle provides a more secure grip through the texture and the more substantial handle size, which is key to the main tasks this knife is intended for. The blade design is very well thought out, with the thickness carried through to the robust yet sharp edge, which remains durable after many rounds of chopping through chicken and meat bones. The weight and balance are well executed, making it easy to direct the substantial heft and power of the blade. While most people would probably think that traditional riveted handle designs are more "premium", in this application the larger molded non slip handle design and larger bolster of the 4 Star line make this the superior choice for a meat clever.

Gets the job done. Cuts through beef, pork and chicken bones effortlessly. Also great to chop tons of onion, celery and carrots for mirepoix. This cleaver is exceptionally strong, and holds an edge for long periods of time, which has not been my experience with my previous cleaver.
Made with Zwilling special formula steel, rugged and reliable. This is the last cleaver I will need to purchase.

I have a 9 piece block bought in 1998. Is this what belongs in the empty space on the top row of my block?
The cleaver fits in the slot on the top left of the block.
