That knife is a CCK KF1303.
The last one I bought from them I paid considerably less. @$125 I think it’s still a good knife. Read the reviews on the CKTG link I posted.
You can buy a cheap chinese chef’s knife at an asian grocery store for less, but this is a serious tool knife meant to be used in a kitchen daily. The sky is the limit with Japanese chuka bocho knives, however this CCK is THE serious entry chinese chef’s knife…my opinion of course.
My picking up the klunky Shun coupled with the big price hike have made me pause, but everything I have read and heard points to the short CCK as a solid choice.
I think if you think the Shun Chinese vegetable knife and satisfies your need, then you can decide from there how much you want to spend… if you want to go heavier or lighter…etc. I have never own the Shun vegetable cleaver. I heard some good things about it, but also some not so-good things about it. For example, it is a little easy to chip. Now, to be honest, Shun Chinese vegetable knife weight may be fine for a vegetable knife. A vegetable knife is a generic term which often sit between the slicer and a real cleaver. For example, a Dexter Russell Chinese chef knife is not light. My Dexter Russell S5198 is now 325 gram. When it was new, it probably was around 350 or more gram.
If you want a thinner, and carbon steel vegetable knife, then I think CCK KF1303 is a still good choice. If you want to spend less than that, maybe let us know what you are willing to give up. I have a carbon steel ShiBaZa. I bought it for like $15 (that was when a KF1303 would be ~$70). The ShiBaZa just does not give the same performance.

Good luck
Maybe a Kagayaki carbon steel KG-20 knife. It is thin blade (2 mm at spine). It is about 305 gram. It is a little short at 7 inch.
The only place in Austin I could touch a Chinese cleaver was Williams-Sonoma, and all they offered was Shun. I hefted one and instantly decided it was not what I wanted.
Road trip over to Chinatown in Houston??? 
I lived in Houston before I moved to Austin in 1989. I still miss it. Plus, it’s an easy drive with good food, Weikl’s going and Hruska’s returning.
