Dongsun Japanese Styled Cleaver Review 7 inch - Kyokuto Japanese AUS10

This Dongsun knife, also called Kyokuto Japanese-styled vegetable cleaver, has a very interesting profile and shape. It works very well, and I love the profile. This is the first Dongsun knife I tried, and I have to say that I'm very pleased with the quality and performance. 🛒S H O P: Dongsun Store: https://bit.ly/2Iz6KEQ N O T E S: I think that the reduced price is temporary or will stop including a free Saya. The price of this Dongsun AUS10 vegetable cleaver was $40/45 when I ordered it, and that included free shipping and a free Saya.
