Japanese knife. German steel. Made in CHINA ?? Doesnt that make it yet another CHINESE knife ??

China has contracts to make knives for Wustof and Zwilling/Heckels. German steel is a type of steel, not a citizen of Germany. Anyone, anywhere can make german steel with the right metallic components......just like you can make a streusel in America but it's origins are German. The Tuo Nakri knife is styled after a Japanese knife made of a specific type of metal with origins from Germany. The knife is produced in China. China has a long history in making quality knives with a number of steel types including Aus10, VG10, and 1.4116. Tuo does a good job with their knife production. BTW, American companies also make a Nakari style knife with 1.4116 German steel.

What is the weight of this TUO cleaver?

The weight of this chopper is 0.65 LB. Thanks for your attention.

Can this cut a coconuts hard shell?

I found a cleaver that specifically stated it was "Perfect for cutting through coconuts and their hard husks". Amazon does sell it and the name is Mueller 7-inch Cleaver Knife, Vegetable Meat Chinese Chef’s Knife, German Stainless Steel with Ergonomic Pakkawood Handle, for Home Kitchen and Restaurant Hope this helps!

Do you have blade covers for the individually sold knives?

I'm really sorry that these knife have no knife sheath. To make our customers 100% is our policy, we will consider to launch the knife sheath in the near future. Thanks for your attention.
