Review of the ENOKING Serbian Chef Knife 6.7 Inch, Handmade Professional Meat Cleaver Knife with Leather Sheath

I bought an ENOKING Serbian Chef Knife 6.7 Inch out of curiosity. I'm unaware there is such a knife as a Serbian knife.

The origin of the Serbian chef's knife is highly debated. While it's generally associated with Serbia, the precise details of its creation and development are not well-documented. 

I was shopping for a Chinese cleaver on Amazon when I came across this Serbian Knife. I was intrigued by its shape and overall size.

It features a broad blade with a unique curved and chopped-off tip. This allows the chef to use the knife differently, whether a rocking motion for chopping or a hard, solid cut for thick stuff. Most Serbian knives tend to be heavier than the usual Chinese cleaver because the blade is usually thicker and tougher than most cleaver knives.

Also, they often come with a handle made of wood or Micarta for a more secure and comfortable grip.  A Micarta is made by layering various fabrics or papers.

The ENOKING Serbian Chef Knife comes well packaged in a nice black box, and surprisingly, it also comes with a nice leather knife sheath to protect the blade.  I also like that the leather knife sheath can be worn on my belt to carry anywhere. This meat cleaver knife looks and feels heavy-duty; it's thicker than a traditional Chinese cleaver, and it is on the heavy side compared to a traditional cleaver.

The knife also features a full tang design with a reinforced riveted grip for superior heat and moisture resistance I appreciate it so much that it is so easy to clean. I have been using this knife cleaver daily, and I can say that it can be used for any cutting job, whether vegetables, meat, poultry, or fish.

Features I like:

• 6.7-inch high-quality blade with a 15-degree edge design for a sharper, durable, and pleasant cutting experience.
• It has a Full Tang, an ergonomically designed wood handle, and a reinforced riveted grip that provides superior heat and moisture resistance, making it easy to maintain.
• Comes with a nice leather knife sheath for storage and belt carry
• I like the weight, not too heavy and not too light,
• Great for bones and large pieces of  meat
• Sharp out of the box and lasted longer than expected
• Seems to be made of 5Cr15Mov, similar to high-carbon stainless steel
• I find it easy to use with my Zwilling JA Henckels honing steel

What I don't like:

• May rust if not well washed after using

The Verdict:

This ENOKING Serbian Chef Knife is an excellent addition to my knife tools. After having used it regularly for more than a year now, I can highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable multi-purpose chef's knife.
