Mercer Culinary ジェネシス カービングナイフ 10インチ 鍛造 5" M20405

Exactly what I expected, a quality Budget friendly knife

One of our sabatier knives went missing from the knife block so I chose this as a replacement, having recently bought a Mercer bread knife and been impressed by the sharpness and durability. I was by no means disappointed, this 5” knife goes through squishy fruit like a laser beam - no pressing required. Over time, I will be replacing all our kitchen knives for this brand as the balance is lovely, the grip is comfortable and the blade is excellent quality for the price.

Very handy knife for fair price. Great steel, good ergonomics. Stays sharp long, easy to sharpen.

Great knife. Sharp straight out of the box. Excellent quality. Feels great in the hand

Bought several of the Mercer Genesis series as a gift, and am SUPER impressed with them! A chef told me about Mercer knives, and their high quality offerings. I have used Wusthof knives for many years, and really like them, however they are really expensive. Mercer seems to have similar steel characteristics, and I love the feel and grip of their Genesis series handles! As with many companies, Mercer makes various quality knives, and some of their lower end stuff I was not particularly impressed with (cheap handles, and non-German steel). The fantastic German steel of the Mercer "Genesis" series gets my highest rating. Very sharp, holds and edge well. The knives are made in Taiwan, out of high grade German cutlery steel (and tooling techniques), which brings the price WAY down, but maintains an absolutely fantastic knife. The quality is impeccable. They come with a limited lifetime warranty. I highly recommend Mercer "Genesis" series knives. Super high quality German steel, fantastic handles, and look amazing - all at a very reasonable cost.
