I'm just starting out in culinary school and the Mercer brand was the top recommendation, for good reason. This knife and the others I have are great quality for their price. I had a loaf of crusty bread and this knife cut through it like melted butter.

I canceled my knife service to buy these a year and a half ago. Saved more than $300 per year. Can't complain about a low price knife that lasts almost 2 years.
Verified Purchase
I bought this to have a bread knife that is solely for off site catering events It has a nice handle that I am not worried will slip in my hand if it gets wet.
It is sharp enough to cut through bread with ease and it stays sharp for a long time. I threw all my other cheap bread knives away. They can't even touch this knife!
Verified Purchase
I inherited a couple of crappy sandwich knives when i bought my deli. These guys make all the difference. As thin as needed to help separate our somewhat pre-cut sub rolls and perfect for cutting the subs in half with enough control to not cut through to the wax paper beneath. Also works well on our cheaper serrated knife sharpener. Highly recommend.
