Perfect to be honest. I'm taking it to work tomorrow so I'll see how it handles. Its a big boy at 230x115. Michael made exactly what I asked for so if there is an issue its on me.

52100. I wanted something "fancier" but Michael gently explained why I was wrong so I took his advise.

As previously stated I had a custom cleaver on order. Now complete!

Got a cleaver ordered from @Knot Handcrafted and its now complete. Top guy with good communication throughout. Can't wait to get my hands on it! 230x115mm 52100 steel.

OK, good. I'm an over thinker, especially when its something I lack knowledge in.
