First of all may I say that I know sweet Fanny Adam about folding and fixed-blade outside, EDC hunting and combat knives.
To me this is a Jack of all trades; master of none but IMHO is a reasonable compromise and has a good quality/value ratio.
I can use it in the kitch or outside but I am more used to cooking voluntarily for hundreds of homeless people a week ; doing my best with my big cheapie Chinese chopper.
I don`t take my bespoke English RWL-34 cai dao to the Temple or Church because I`d cry if it went west.

My Chinese Shooziz Han-318 folding cleaver came today and I think it`s a big beauty.
It`s a pocket knife but you can use it as a field kitchen cleaver/mini hatchet/mini axe because it is quite robust.
The blade is made from reasonably tough 8Cr13Mov which is a claimed 58 HRC rockwell hardness.
It only has a 4 inch blade but it is 6 mm or almost 1/4 quarter inch thick and weighs over 13 1/4 ounces or 376 grams.
It came with a beautiful nylon zipped case and cleaning cloth.It was ground at >60 degrees reasonably sharp but not shaving sharp.
I think it was a bargain at £44 Great British pounds or about $56 American dollars approx and I normally don`t carry knives outside but it`ll be fine for my EDC - I wanted a man`s knife but pocket-sized and folding.
I am not trying it in the garden just yet because it`s new.

I`ve had my eyes on this mini bad boy for a while - there is nothing like it at anywhere near the price from the U.S., Europe or Japan ; unless I spent four figures and waited months for a bespoke knife.

Mmm not much yet - it has factory grease on it but I don`t care about rust one bit - I can sort it out in minutes.I have industrial chemicals//rust remedies/nano coating protective sprays and jewelers abrasives/file/diamond powder - the monty.
