Recommendations for a Chinese Cleaver

B&B membership has its percs
I do have a Chinese Cleaver type knife - can't remember where I got it - it is, in my hand for my home veggie prep, heavy and rather large .. stumbled in here looking to see if there was something else that might serve better. This one has no english inscription, only what I assume is chinese, stainless I think. Weighs 275 gr

I got a wok shop #2 veggie and did a cheap project on it. Bought a saya from CKTG and a Olive wood Wa handle really cheap of ebay. Cut the top off the handle and ebonized both the handle and saya. Then did a coffee vinegar patina on the blade. I believe the saya was the most expensive part of the project. It's a great blade for the price. I am guessing the thing is some maybe better than others and I may have gotten lucky cause mine seems really well done.
