Machado Serbian Chef Knife - High Carbon Clad Steel Unagisaki Butcher Cleaver, Full Tang Kitchen Chef Knives - Ideal Fathers & Mothers Day Gifts

I dont know the origins of this brand and if it is Chinese or Indian or European ( least likely, but Machado is knife in Portugese), but I like the full tang blade and overall balance. It cuts out of the box logs and trunks. Sharpness is adequate. The sheath is a cheap polyester one obviously considering the total price but one can always make his own custom sheath with high quality leather. Overall value for money if you do not want to splurge in high end cutlery brands or really expensive knifes for say a local trip necessarily but also quality for the customer. I think this brand is doing a good job in that regard, which is keeping customers happy. This is a good design and its way better than the stuff you can bu from outdoorsy brands like Coleman for instance. Not to be judgmental but I own several high end premium products and brands but once in a while I do appreciate the affordable quality range of products and this is one of them.

Received the knife in good condition. The blade is okay, but it may not be made of high-carbon steel, as it needs sharpening once a week and requires daily burr removal before cutting. The knife is lightweight. The handle is made of cheap plastic and may not be durable. I wiped it clean after every use and stored it in the plastic cover provided and it did not rust. After sharpening, it cuts tomatoes effortlessly. The plastic cover is also not durable. Overall, it is a good product for the price.

Great product, strong sturdy knife, great for outdoor camper hikers etc.

Worth the money.

Light Weight is around 100 to 150gm.looks good

Pros : - Worth every penny. - Good weight for chopping firewood. - Sharp straight out of box. - Ergonomically good. - Great size for Campings & Treks. Chop wood or vegetables. - Looks Cool. CONS/ Would happily PAY More for these changes : - Sheath Sucks ( Please make a Strapable, heavy duty Sheath) - Better Quality Steel Needed ( This is good but wont stand for long, Would need extra care and sharpening after every trip) - Handle Comfort ( Could use Better solid handle) - Would love a black colour way of blade (Oxidation colour) This has the potential to become the next ‘Kershaw - Camp 10’ Knife. Very happy overall. Just because the price is perfect. Do make a second gen of this knife. Would happily pay double the amount or even more.

The knife is very good and sharp....I am from Arunachal Pradesh and it's very useful in tracking and camping and even to cut way in dense forest path...nice....very satisfied

Worst product don't buy... In reality product doesn't look the same as per the images it is small in reality and can't be used for fish and meat cutting can only be used as for vegetables also the sharpness degrades within few used
