When choosing a meat knocker this fell to such a device. The reason was that I not made of wood but of either metal or hard plastic wanted. Cleaning is better with these materials. From Weight 305g with exactly he certainly not one of the very heavy calibers, leaves But because of its size with not even 30cm perfect use. Grip and knocking part hold extremely fast to the chrome center bar. The handle itself is slightly roughened so that it a well with slippery fingers not the same slide from selfsame. I do not definitely worth a recommendation.
