Notice it is similar but like a cleaver. I have also been trying to find the name of this, but the closest I found was a Japanese menkiri.
Hope someone can answer this.
PS: it is similar to the knife that was used by BanBan from one piece anime, which was asked by another user. What kind of cooking knife is this?
Updates:
I just found a clearer view of the knife at 3:58 in the video in the youtube link. Basically, it is like a cleaver, without the handle jutting out, but part of the blade it self.
It should look something like this:
I tried to use google image search, using this image, to find but no luck.
PS: The photo above is photoshop of what I think the cleaver looks like.

I also believe the style of knife you're looking for is called an "ulu" though the OP pix look to be a ulu cleaver.

What is a Mezzaluna knife used for?
The mezzaluna is a tool for finely chopping vegetables or herbs. It is used especially when preparing soups, when adding chopped herbs to a dish like frittata or meatballs, or when preparing salads with vegetables like fennel or cabbage.Are Mezzalunas worth it?
Although you may not use a mezzaluna as often as a chef's knife, it is worth paying for a high-quality blade. Zabar's, for instance, offers a mezzaluna for less than $10. The blade is thin and light. It slides across herbs and tears the leaves, and you have to work a lot harder to press down.What steel are Cutco knives?
