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
Some of the cheap chinese cleavers are amazing. The one I have is really sharp and will do everything from thinly sliced garlic to parting out a chicken. Agreed it is not very versatile away from the chopping board. And they are big and heavy.
