Mercer Culinary produces cutlery that is on par with its more expensive competitors (cough, couch henkels, wusthoff) without breaking the bank. This is my second Mercer product, and I could not be more pleased with it. This knife is wicked-razor-sharp, and the edge retention is just astounding. I just filleted a whole stringer of walleye, and a few trout (about 25 fish) and I swear I could still cut a hair in mid air with this katana-sharp knife. I simply love it, but I would love it even more if they would have included an edge guard or a sheath of some kind with it.

High quality chef knife. Handle placement is very good. We were worried the rubber-type grip handle would be cheesy or cheap, but it is actually really nice, and very helpful to prevent slips. Very good chef knife. Better than my Cutco version, and MUCH better than my Dexter one.

This is a great home knife. I bought this one for my brother-in-law, jast a normal home cook. I told him it was a decent knife and very sharp. He said sharp is what he wanted. Then used it and said it was scary sharp it cuts so smooth and basically fell through the tomato with no pressure. I love the price and quality of these knifes.

From a home cooks perspective, this is an awesome knife. 10 inches is just about the max for home use, but it really does fly through food. You need a full size cutting board for sure when using this knife.

Great upgrade for someone used to cheap, big box store knives. It is not the sharpest ever (and you want it to be so that the knife does the work and you minimize the chance of slipping), but for the price I am happy with my purchase. Depending on your hand size/preference, the 8" may be too large.

Large commercial knife that cuts so cleanly through produce. The grip is stable and comfortable, I can even slice easily through very large pineapples. The best part is, this knife is so darn easy to clean. Never rusts, always looks like new and we have used it for countless hours a day almost every single day for 1.5 years. Get this if you need an NSF approved knife that will make your busy kitchen life easier!

This knife became dull very quickly after purchase. Even with attempts to sharpen it never quite gets sharp enough. I wish we had spent the extra money on a better product.

Really like this knife, it makes breaking down larger pieces of meat easy. Cuts through them with only a few swipes. Would recommend to others for purchase.
