#504 3" Mini Cleaver

Nice and sharp. Purchased 3 years ago, they're still going strong. Wood handle is dyed or stained from the factory. The color has washed out, but that's no issue for me. I add melted beeswax on handle so it doesn't splinter and break.

The vendor putted a Kiwi Brand knife and it is a replica. I'm sorry it wont match my knife set. Let's see how long does it last. Also very small !

More like a kids toy then a useful chopper

I bought this knife because I have long wanted to try a knife from this brand. And, miniature versions things are fun. I tried it out by slicing some cheese off of a block of cheddar and slicing some brussels sprouts in half. It definitely is sharp and, for cheese, it is easier to cut straight slices than with a standard paring knife. The fit and finish is far from bad considering the price point. I see myself grabbing this thing multiple times a week for various tasks that I dont want to use a full-sized knife for. It will be interesting to see how long it stays sharp and how easy it is to put a sharp edge on it in the future. This definitely is not going to be something that you use for 'cleaving' anything unless you're a koala bear chopping eucalyptus leaves or something like that. It has a three inch blade and weighs maybe a couple of ounces. It's not going to win any awards for economy of motion, but it is a fun and functional little knife.

It’s a cute-sized knife, but very sharp, and easy to slice for daily food and decoration for avocados, cucumbers, mini tomatoes, and soft textures such as cooked shrimp. It becomes my favorite kitchen tool
