If that's what you're going to do with it... then you're going to love it. It's an absolute refined beast for those chores and excels at them on a daily basis. And if need be it could handle much much more.
Initially I thought the inkosi may be to small as well when I first grabbed it. This is the problem i think most people make when handling a knife for the first time. They automatically grab it in a hammer grip. Realistically, how often does someone hold it that way in their daily cutting chores?? When you use the knife in a variety of other holds in your daily cutting is when the grooves of the inkosi start to shine. They just seem to be in all the right places when maneuvering the knife around in your hand and making sure it stays put throughout the cut.
I also thought the blade was going to come up too short when compared to the small sebenza. That is until one summer day late last august I took at Honey Dew melon out to the deck for a fresh relaxing snack in the afternoon sun. In my haste to get out and enjoy the weather I forgot a kitchen knife. Laziness had set in and I refused to get back up from my patio chair. Luckily I had the inkosi in my pocket. I thought to myself this is never going to work. No way will the blade get to the center and punch out some nice slices of melon. Was I ever wrong!! Not only did it do it well it performed incredibly well at slicing clearing seeds and making some bite size chunks out a relatively large melon.
So all around, in my opinion of course, it is a perfect candidate for an everyday every-chore carry knife. Enjoy it!
