The G-50 is a Chinese chef’s knife, a multipurpose knife used by Chinese chefs in the same way that Western style chef’s knives, like the G-2, are used. These rectangular knives, referred to in Chinese as Gudao, are used for chopping vegetables, cutting through some softer bones and mincing meat. In fact, it is typically the ONLY knife that a Chinese chef will use. 

• Chinese chef’s knife
• Extremely versatile, all-round blade
• 4mm Blade thickness
• Ultra sharp 15° cutting edge
• Smaller G-49 Chinese Chopper available with 17.5cm, 2.2mm blade

While these Chinese Choppers look like cleavers, they are not suitable for this task due to the thinner blades.
