Hi all,
I am looking for a big knife for light chopping and use on meat. I have owned a martindale golok but found it too big and I wanted to be able to use the edge to cut and not just whack. I did love using the thing however, even if it was clumsy.
I reckon 8-9" of blade and a decent enough steel. Fairly lightweight. In fact the classic butchers knife pattern sold by old hickory would be excellent if the steel was thicker. A Leuku looks like another good idea but I can't decide which one is any good. A high sabre type grind would do well also.
There was a company like ontarion who used to do something like this for a reasonable price in 1095 I think.
Feel free to give any suggestions or just turn this into knife porn.
Many thanks.
