I never realized this one market was open to the public and always thought it was restaurant retail. I got one on the left. It was nicely balanced and priced right for $22. There were heavier ones for less, but they just didn't feel right. I think I saw a carbon steel one (because it had some rust in it), and it was $18, but it felt off.

There were many many more cleavers, but I couldn’t take more pics because it was Sunday and crowded. I was getting pushed out the aisle

Hell yeah bud, good work

Where was this?

If you’re in Montreal on St-Laurent street in China town there are a few shops.

I can try to find the exact name, but it was right next to a shop that sells all sorts of Chinese herbs.

It’s in Chicago, market near 24th place and canal st.

Edit: It's called "Park to Shop" Market on 2425 S Wallace St, Chicago, IL 60616. The parking lot is pure chaos, but there's plenty of street parking around it.

These are decent, especially second one. Not as good as 202 and 208 series, but at this price great purchases.

I actually have this knife. My local market had them behind a counter, so I didn't really get to check it out before I paid for it. It's a bit thicker and heavier than I expected but it'll be a great beater knife.

Thanks Wilkamania.
