  • I need a kitchen knife, 1 knife to rule them all.

    Has anyone used a Chinese cleaver style chefs knife?

    or should I really stick to a standard chefs knife?

  • Chinese cleaver is not the one knife I'm afraid. Decent weight chefs knife or santoku would be my choice

  • Agree. Unless you've grown up using a Chinese blade and it's second nature.

  • I use 3 knives: big (chef's knife), small (paring knife for fine work) and serrated (bread knife).

    That and a steel'll do ya.

  • i recently got a chinese cleaver and enjoy using it im getting used to it the more i use it. Get a cheap one to try it maybe ?
    the only thing i find it no good for is carving large joint as it's just not long enough
