Similar styles on etsy sell for 4 to 5 times more. I'm a collector and weekend warrior, active in local groups and Renaissance Fair so I get lots of feedback. I sell what I own and can recommend. See my Seller ratings and buy with confidence, plus I ship fast! ••• The first thing I thought of when I took this out of the box was 'Bill the Butcher' in the movie Gangs of New York - in case you haven't seen it, a fierce street fighter who was very partial to his cleaver :) Not only did he use it hand-to-hand fighting but would throw it with deadly effect. Also great for home defense as well as more mundane purposes. In contrast to other kitchen knives, the cleaver has an especially tough edge meant to withstand repeated blows directly into thick meat, dense cartilage, and bone. This resilience is accomplished by using a softer, tougher steel and a thicker blade, (a harder steel or thinner blade might fracture under hard use). Swung like a hammer, the cleaver’s design relies on sheer momentum to cut efficiently; to chop straight through rather than slicing in a sawing motion. Part of the momentum derives from how hard the user swings the cleaver, and the other part from how heavy the cleaver is. The grind for a meat cleaver, at approximately 25°, is much blunter than for other kitchen knives
