Reviews for Mercer Culinary M13914 Millennia® 14" Granton Edge Slicer Knife

Indescribably sharp and beautifully balanced. This is an astonishingly good knife, especially for the money. I've never used a knife that holds its edge as well as this one does. One really doesn't have to apply pressure when slicing meet, for example. The weight of the knife allows it to effortless glide right through the meat under its own weight. Yes, it is stamped, but the balance is very, very good. The handle material is very comfortable to hold; soft and very "grippy" even when wet. One minor gripe is with the ergonomics of the handle where it meets the blade: it is physically wider than the rest of the handle. I believe that this is to give the user a "fitted" area in which to place the thumb and index finger, but this makes it difficult to "pinch" the blade for control (as most professionals do).

Good knife. I use it for slicing brisket on my food truck. I have a much more expensive slicer (about 3 times the cost of this one) but found the handle to gets slick after slicing for a while. This handle has a better shape making it much easier to grip with greasy gloves.

This Knife is amazing for cutting. It's nice and long but cuts super sharp. Very great purchase.

This carving knife very sharp and cuts effortlessly and is an essential item in every chefs tool kit. I highly recommend this product, I would certainly purchase again.

Super sharp and keeps its edge well. While it's too large to be practical for many purposes, it really helps with carving large meats like brisket or turkey breast.

Needed a nice big slicing knife for carving up brisket and this does the job. Plenty long and arrived sharp out of the box. Great knife.

The Mercer Culinary M23011 Millennia 11" Granton Edge Slicer Knife is a great knife perfect for slicing brisket or other large roasts. The granton edge helps prevent the meat from sticking to the blade. I would recommend buying this product.

We typically slice around 50 beef briskets per month. For that reason we wanted to test out a few different options. I can say for certain that this slicing knife was the absolute standout of the bunch. The edge is incredibly sharp right out of the package. The handle incredibly comfortable and affords you an element of control that is unrivaled by any of the other slicing knife options. If you're in the market for an above average slicing knife for a great price this is the one that you need to purchase!

Love this knife! Quickly cuts watermelon and made it easy for me to use (super sharp so a little nervous using his but was careful). I hesitated purchasing the 11" knife because it was so much cheaper and you know what they say, you get what you pay for, but after reading the reviews I made the purchase and glad I did! It cuts like butter! Have used it several times but this knife also works well on bread, brisket and other foods. HIGHLY recommended!

This is an Excellent silver knife my Mercer culinary at a fair price point . Useful for slicing meat , the steel blade and slip resistant handle are invaluable

This is the longest carving blade that I've ever owned! It's a great knife and the granton edge is perfect for smoked beef brisket. My dad was an old time butcher who taught and required me to properly slice meat. It does the job and is a great tool. What I really like is being able to display some showmanship in my slicing skills. Buy this knife, only if you know how to cut and slice meat. It's not amateurs. Don't forget the blade guard.

Our local grocery store has a truckload sale a 2-3 times per year. You can buy butcher packs at that time. We this knife I can easily cut perfect New York strip steaks in one pass. I do wish there was a knife guard that would cover the whole blade. It is wickedly sharp.

Mercer knives have been in a staple in my knife kit for some time now. They tend to stay sharp and are durable. This slices is no exception to that. I love the large handle (I have big hands) and the long blade makes it easier to make single motion slices on prime cuts of meat like my smoked briskets.

This is a very good inexpensive slicing knife. The stamped blade was sharp out of the box, and very easy to resharpen. It's just long enough to get a nice, even slice without having to "saw". The width of the blade and the rounded tip help to make even, consistent slices, and the handle is comfortable and secure. An inexpensive knife that does what it was designed to do.

These are a must buy for any one who offers carving stations for catering. It's super comfortable and glides through pork, beef, chicken, turkey alike. It's a definite winner.

A monster knife. A sharp monster knife that is. I really like how the edge is rounded so when slicing the knife does not get caught. It will last a awhile for my needs.

this mercer grantor edge knife makes cutting steak and other meats a breeze with the edge to be nonstick we can keep slicing without moving meat around

We purchased a couple of these knives for carving proteins better then the chef's knives we had on hand. Mercer is a really good, trusted brand of knives and upon receiving these, we could see and feel the quality of knife. When we used them, they didn't disappoint.

Great knife at a fantastic price. Arrives extremely sharp. Fits in your hand well and cuts ribs like they were butter. Perfect size, too. I may give these as gifts - they're that good.

Great carving knife! We cook and carve about 120 pounds of prime rib a week, and this guy has held it's edge well. Nice and sharp!

Was surprised at the quality for the price. I bought this knife because I needed a longer knife for slicing brisket. Knife was somewhat sharp out of package. The edge was slightly off center, but was easily fixed on my stone. Have used this knife now about 10 times. It has held up well and kept a decent edge.

I use this knife to cut raw sirloin butt in a commercial setting; I cut about 1000 to 1500 lbs of sirloin per week with this knife alone. I have had to replace it about once a year due to the amount of mileage I use them for. Price tag is great. I probably wouldn't need to replace this knife if I used it in my home rather than for business.

This knife always surprises me how sharp it is when I'm using it. I bought this for leveling large cakes and it does the job.

Bought this as a gift for my Father and it has stood the test of time. This knife just like all Mercer knives has a comfortable grip and a very SHARP blade. This knife will carve up anything you put in front of it.

I use this knife to slice ham and brisket. It performs well and stays sharp. It is rigid and appears to be holding up well

This knife is a perfect slicing knife for meat and makes short work for brisket in single strokes. I've used the knife at home several times after the event for a family dinner, and it is still extremely sharp.

This slicer is great. Not too expensive and has held its edge for a long time. It goes right through prime rib with little effort

I use these slicers for my sharpening service they keep food from sticking. have a nice profile that does not get thick after a few sharpenings also good height at heel to keep you safe when chopping close to the heel, Highly recommended decent edge retention for a stamped knife.

Great slicer for bbq brisket. Comfortable grip and well balanced blade. Glassy smooth cuts mean a beautiful product. Price is unbeatable. My go to blade for slicing large cuts. Perfect amount of flex for my liking.

Love these knives. We use them to carve all of our meats and they work well and stay sharp. Easy to sharpen if needed as well.

This is one of the best bargains in my knife block. A must have for slicing apart ribs, brisket and other big meats. I can't believe how good a deal it is... buying more as gifts.

This knife is wonderful. I wanted the blade to be less wide, but that was my misconception. Other than that, it is awesome. Watch out, though, it is a little long! Can't think of anything I need a 14" slicer for, but I have it when I need it.

I cook competition BBQ and this knife cuts brisket very even and straight, a sure winner in my arsenal of tools. this is a must have knife.

This knife is really big, its a nice weight, comes in a nice blister pack. it will not fit in an average kitchen drawer unless its diagonal. feels very solid in the hand.

knife is well made with right size handle. great for shaving larger roasts. The long blade lets you thinly slice le length of your leg roast in one stroke. the price is alright too.

Generous length, great weight and handle. This a must of those special occasions when you need thin and consistant slices. As a home cook we don't use it as often as a resturant but it is great to have on hand when needed. At this price you cannot affored to not buy it.

This is my go to knife for carving stations. Customers are always attracted to the flashy knife and love how it slices paper thin slices of beef.

This is a nice long slicer for thinly cutting steak tenderloin tableside!! I love using it to butcher large whole fish!! Easy to remove fillet with two swipes!!!

This slicing knife is inexpensive, and arrived sharp enough to make handiwork of a roast beef. The grip is contoured, and quite comfortable. Eleven inches is a good blade size for the majority of slicing.

this is a very nice knife. it slices very smoothly. it is very easy to handle it has a very nice grip on it. easy to clean.
