As someone who researches to the moon when it comes to buying my cooking tools i can say with full heart and a satiated belly that this knife is the cuts like the lighting bold of zues. If you go online you will see some Head to head challenges of this Nakiri vs Yaxel, SHun etc... and this one kicks butt for the price. Its shockingly sharp, and you will have to get used the chop vs rocking cutting method and then you will become a food ninja. Best money Ive ever spent on any knife yet. Cant wait to get my hands on some more of the Mx3 knifes by mercer. Peace out, and stay hungry.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers
What is VG-10?
VG-10 is incredibly durable, high end stainless steel with a high carbon content that is made in Japan. This steel features 1% carbon content, which is double the carbon content of some other forged steel blades. VG-10 is commonly referred to as a "super-steel" material because of its overall strength and incredible edge sharpness. Additionally, it's about half the weight of German steel.

Customer Photos & Videos
It's a really fun knife. It's light, it's thin and it's fast. Hold an edge rather well, but does take a little more to wet spots than I'd expect.
Truth is.... I own a LOT of knives. Different styles, different years, etc. Mercer makes a quality knife at any budget and this nakiri is no exception. Expect it to perform like a lower end misono molybdenum.
