Chinese Cleavers are the Asian version of the French chef knife. They are not used for chopping bone, they are slicers and are treated and used like a chef knife. The Chinese have used the cleaver since the beginning of time and the Japanese combined it with their metallurgy and created some really nice cleavers of their own.
Chan Chi Kee (also known as CCK) are a big name in Chinese Cleavers. They also make a wide variety of kitchen tools and utensils for professional and home cooks. The Li’l Rhino Cleaver gets its name from looking like the small horn on a rhinoceros. It is a perfect tool for chopping things like herbs and vegetables. It's also a good choice for breaking down primal cuts of meats. With its pointed tip and rounded front end the Li’l Rhino also loves to get between bones or remove skin. The blade is made from carbon steel, so extra care is required to prevent rusting and corrosion. Keep it dry and clean and you will not have problems. This is one fun knife that is also high in function and has great appeal.Weight: 7.8 ounces
Thickness at Heel: 2 mm

Really Fun, Super Versatile, July 28, 2017Posted By: Sean Wood - verified customer
Bought the knife to use for an at home protein prep knife. Great for taking apart chickens and small game but at the same time totally suitable for s quick vegetable chop and has a great edge. The pointed tip is really good for getting into small areas and the knife itself has kept a great look to it without any special care other than wiping after use. Really great first cleaver experience!

Great little cleaver, February 8, 2017 The Perfect Gift!, January 4, 2017Posted By: Amaya - verified customer
I bought this knife as a Christmas present for my best friend. He's a chef that's moving up in the world of food, and training like a madman at 2 different kitchens. Both kitchens are small, so I selected this knife for it's versatility. What was surprising was how much chefknivestogo.com went beyond the call of duty. I ordered the knife late before Christmas, and it got to my friend on Christmas Eve. I was blown away that it made it there so fast! He opened it and was stunned at how rustic but sophisticated the blade looked. Then he sat and honed the knife with some ceramic, and played with some apples to get a feel for the blade. He's in love with it and says it will probably quickly become his favorite knife. He described the cleaver as light weight and easy to yield, yet heavy enough to "do some damage". I'm not a chef so I have no idea what the technical description or use would be for something like this. But he seemed extremely pleasedwhich is all that matters to me. Thank you chefknivestogo.com for being so awesome. Maybe I'll order myself one of these bad boys for cooking on the go here in Europe :)

I bought this just to have something to mess around with. It's relatively sharp out of the box, but I touched it up a bit and it took a mean edge. the fit a finish are good, but utilitarian. It's lighter then it looks, and get quite thin at the edge. Over all, I'm rather happy I bought this, and would definitly suggest it.

Great little* cleaver, July 28, 2015Posted By: Matt

Just got this knife in today and I'm already in love with it. It's very rough-'n'-tumble in terms of finish, but feels so practical in-handespecially for my small kitchen workspace. I do a lot of my vegetable and protein prep on a narrow kitchen cart wedged up next to my fridge, and where my traditional, boxy Chinese cleaver doesn't always have the room to maneuver there, this knife feels almost compact because of its rounded edge. It speeds through onions with a rocking slice and I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces.

Great knife. Very sharp and easy to handle. Does great with poultry butchering but be careful with larger cuts and large bones. I gave it a pretty serious dent in the blade trying to tackle lamb bones.

I bought this knife on impulse because it's cool looking. I find my self using it a lot more than I thought I would, It chops great I also have found that this knife can be held almost like a pen and the forward edge can be used to peel celleriac and large turnips. All around a fun and useful knife the steel easely takes a keen edge.

I picked up one of these years ago on a trip to Hong Kong. The edge wraps around all the way to the tip, giving you a longer edge than a standard cleaver, making it very useful for slicing cuts such as portioning fillets. Also useful for hanging style cuts as the forward edge is in a more comfortable position. Use it by making a cut drawing the blade towards you, flexing the wrist as you approach the tip.
