we use these knives exclusively in the restaurant and at home. they are the single best i have ever bought and cheap enough to be disposable. they are the kind you can hold a tomato and just slice without feeling the edge cut either side. just use a steel to retain edge as the material is very thin. they last three to five months with hard use in the restaurant and many years at home. when i see a sale i but a full box of them and give them as gifts to friends and relatives.
Kiwi Brand Knives from Thailand
Just an unbelievable very sharp vegetable cleaver, made in Thailand. For those on a limited budget, this series of "Kiwi" brand knives from Thailand are an excellent buy, very good value. Can't find a sharper knife for the money and for some miraculous reason, they stay sharp for a long, long time. Great for student cooks, and college students and general kitchen use. Highly recommended. these are typical prices at a vietnamese grocery. we use the middle two. blunt end at home, pointed at the restaurant. didn't copy the cleaver pics.
