This review is from: Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star II Meat Cleaver (Kitchen)

A meat cleaver ought to be a big slab of steel (for mass and durability) with a wide angle of edge grind for toughness. The Henckels Four Star II 6" cleaver delivers in spades - at a size that is perfect for kitchen tasks like dismembering poultry in seconds and whacking apart beef and pork ribs lickety split. It does so elegantly, with its handsome bolster and etched heel cap. It does it functionally with high carbon ice tempered stainless steel that holds an edge well but is easy to sharpen and takes an edge well (just remember to grind by hand or at a slow wheel speed to avoid heat build up and use a wide angle of grind). This unit is the Mercedes of kitchen meat cleavers.

The cleaver appears to be a sturdy tool, yet if fails to slice, or cut easily, and the edge should be sharper. Although the edge appears to be sharp, it does not slice/cut easily.
