I have a Chinese cleaver which I like very much. As I don't eat much meat, I use it primarily for vegetables.
It was quite sharp when new. When I sharpened it, I neglected to check the original bevel angle. I discovered that it was less than my standard 15° for both bevels. I will restore the original bevel angles (or at least best guess) in the next sharpening. I sharpen it in the standard Tormek knife jig, however, I have to use the Extended Support Bar from Robin C Bailey. It is both taller and longer than the standard issue Tormek universal support bar.
