XYJ Authentic Since 1986,Outstanding Ancient Forging,6.7 Inch Full Tang,Serbian Chefs knife,Chef Meat Cleaver,Kitchen Knives,Set with Leather Sheath,Take Carrying,Butcher

Let’s be real — this knife looks awesome right out of the box. The full tang Serbian-style cleaver has some serious weight to it, and it chops like a champ. It’s quickly become my go-to knife for everything from prepping meats to slicing herbs. The set also includes a comically small bonus knife — it’s sharp, but more of a novelty. Might be useful for cutting herbs, packaging, or fishing line, but don’t expect it to handle much more than that. One thing I was really impressed with is the sheath. It’s high quality and makes storing the knife safe and worry-free. You can tell it was designed with care — the knife fits securely and the material feels durable. Overall, this knife is a win. Great craftsmanship, awesome weight, solid performance, and a cool look. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a serious blade in the kitchen or at the grill.

This is a fantastic, heavy-duty chef's knife. The thick blade gives it a substantial, weighty feel that's perfect for both the kitchen and outdoor camping. I've had this knife for about eight months now, and after a quick sharpening on a whetstone, it has kept its edge incredibly well. The weight of the knife makes it easy to chop through tough vegetables, bones, and even a filled water bottle—it's a real workhorse. My husband gets lots of compliments on its great look when he takes it camping with the Scouts. Just a heads-up: because it's a high-carbon steel blade, not stainless, you should wipe it with a thin coat of cooking oil after washing to prevent rust. With that small bit of care, this knife is a phenomenal tool.

I waited a few months before reviewing so that I can report back with accurate information. If anyone is worried about rust, I will address that in this post. I'll start off by saying that the knife itself is gorgeous. It's huge, heavy, and very easy to grip and cut with. I only eat at home and I meal prep 12 meals every 3 days. This meal prep involves cutting a lot of meat and vegetables. My meal preps used to take so much longer when I had regular knives, but after getting this one, it slices through everything like butter. The weight and sturdiness also helps you cut, as it's so bulky that you won't risk bending or breaking the knife if you apply pressure when needed. I did see some photos and comments of rust, but I think those people are just slow and don't know how to take care of something. Walmart sells entire sets of knives for like $10, so if you're going to go and spend $50 on 1 knife, you NEED TO TAKE CARE OF IT. You can spend a $1000 on a knife, it ain't gonna take care of itself. If you don't take care of your items, they will deteriorate. You can't buy a $50 knife and treat it like a $2 knife from Walmart. This knife is stainless steel. Metal + water + oxygen = no bueno. That is basic chemistry, regardless of how much a knife costs, rust will form when a combination of metal, water, and oxygen are allowed to sit for a period of time. Every single time I use this knife, the FIRST thing I do is wash it with hot water and a soapy sponge. Afterwards, I dry it off with a towel. I then spray oil on it, you don't need to be all fancy and get mineral oil, I just spray avocado oil from Costco on it then use a napkin to spread it around the entirety of the knife. The oil acts as a barrier between the metal, water, and oxygen, thus preventing it from rusting. I then put the knife in its leather sleeve and put it away. If that sounds complicated to you, idk what to tell you. It takes me less than 30 seconds to do all of that. (PS you're supposed to do this same thing with wooden/bamboo cutting boards) That is how you're supposed to take care of a knife. If you're going to use the knife, then give it a brief rinse and let it sit in your sink with water and food particles all night before you finally wash it the next day, your knife WILL rust no matter how expensive it is. If you don't want to take care of a metal knife, then go get those cheap cancerous non-stick knives from Walmart. My rant on that is over. Overall, the knife is amazing and has made me much more confident in the kitchen. Bonus, it came with a mini version of the knife which I was able to give to my girlfriend (it's actually insanely sharp so she is not allowed to use it).

This knife has a great look, and is very sharp. The craftsmanship is very durable and sty. It fits perfectly in your hand.

4/5. Decent starter Serbian knife. I've been seeing ads for this style of knife for years and decided to finally give it a try. The handle is not comfortable with it's squared off edges. The knife is not super sharp, and it's pretty small. However, this thing has some serious heft. With that, it makes it quite good for cutting difficult items like thick (uncooked) meats and squash. I don't like using this knife to slice cooked steak, but if I need to cut a roast into steaks this thing is decent. I'd like a better knife with better steel, but if you're on a budget this is a great knife.

Never write reviews but this knife is a pretty good buy. If you want to know if the knife is good, yes it is. It’s solid steel with a good heft, comfortable handle, and sharp out of the box. You can use it for most kitchen tasks that call for a sharp, hefty blade. I made this my main kitchen knife and use it frequently. But that’s not why I wanted to write a review... I expected just the knife in the box but it comes with a full size leather sheath with a loop if you plan on taking it somewhere (think camping or cookout). Not amazing quality but it is leather and serves its purpose. Okay so that’s cool but there is more. This knife comes with…. A miniature version of the knife with, wait for it… it’s own leather sheath for storing and taking it on the go. This sounds like a gimmick but I found it actually pretty useful as a letter and box opener. It’s just a cool value add that’s actually nice to have, picture with quarter for scale included. They also include a whetstone for sharpening both blades. It’s pretty small and frankly I found it a bit scary trying to use the small stone. One slip up and I’d be sharpening the blade on my hand bones so I’d get a real set of sharpening stones to sharpen blades properly. That said, the sharpness out of the box was quite adequate and I’d expect it to hold up quite well if cared for. In closing, cool knife with a bit more than expected, great price for what you get!

I’m a Sous Chef, i honestly bought it to be a cheap chopping knife. It turned out to be a sharp as hell, all around knife that i use for almost anything. They also sent a mini version of the same knife but with no handle, i use that at home to peel apples for the kids, lol. i highly recommend it

I don’t usually write reviews, but this knife absolutely deserves it. From the moment I used it, I could tell it was a cut above the rest (pun intended!). It’s extremely sharp—effortlessly slices through meat, vegetables, and everything in between with a smooth, clean motion. Whether you’re prepping a weeknight dinner or hosting a barbecue, this knife won’t disappoint. The balance is perfect, giving it a premium feel and great control in the hand. I did face a minor issue with the first unit I received. However, the seller was incredibly responsive—they resolved the issue within just a few hours and promptly sent me a replacement, which arrived on the third day. That level of service is rare and truly appreciated! Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. If you’re on the fence, go for it. You’ll get a top-notch knife and peace of mind with stellar support. Highly recommend this to everyone without hesitation!
