Mercer CulinaryNakiri Knife, 7-Inch

Absolutely beautiful knife. very comfy handle. Still going strong after 2 years of dialy use. Have another one of the same brand and same experience. Top quality. Weighty and sturdy. Slices beautifully. Although is very very sharp when it arrives so be careful

Great solid knife. After doing a bunch of research i came about this knife and its great!Feels weighty in the hand which i enjoy. Cuts really well and has a clean look. Perfect for an all rounder knife

I have bought quite a few very sharp knives for cutting joints of meat which are good but heavy to use. Saw this type of knife used by a chef on a youtube video and it looked ideal. Opted for the 11 inch rather than the 14 inch which for me not carving half a pig is ideal. The knife is well balanced and cuts so thinly, even my Husband uses it and he is very fussy. Carving a small 2kgs honey glazed ham joint it cut thin slices when cold like a hot blade in butter. How this will be in 12 months we shall see but for now very pleased. My only moan is that it should be sold with a cover being as sharp as it is. Would have happily paid extra for this.

Nice handle, good weight, but I felt that the blade was too thin. Purchased for jointing and carving chicken/ turkey, but I don't like it when I can feel it flexing. Perhaps best used for straighforward slicing of meat. Undecided about buying more in the range.

Nice sharp knife, does the job, fast delivery, many thanks.

I spent a week researching a knife to get. Mercer are a relatively new company to the chef knife market so the price tag is pleasantly lower than it's competition.Beautifully balanced full tang knife, sharpened great and a real pleasure to use... It even makes a swish noise when slicing thru my veg! Love it!

I like tomatoes. And I prefer the ones that have been ripened on the vine and are of a variety that has a proper flavour, rather than those that are picked while half-ripe and remain flavourless and bullet-hard for weeks on end.The downside is that the tomatoes I buy can get a little soft just days after purchase. And if, they hide themselves at the bottom of your fridge, only surfacing a week or so later, they can be especially soft and difficult to slice cleanly.So, when I learned of the existence of a knife specifically designed to cut tomatoes, I knew I had to have one!After much deliberation, I decided on this little beauty. Solidly constructed and very nicely finished, it is made from German X50 Cr Mo V15 stainless steel. Very durable and very hard. The latter being important as the serrated edge is going to be rather tricky to sharpen, I think.The blade is very sharp and effortlessly slices even the mushiest of fruits. Its compact size is especially handy for smaller cherry tomatoes which you wouldn’t want to try and hold while attacking with a full-size chef’s or Santoku knife. Handles a variety of small fruits and vegetables and even does a very good job as a mini breadknife when tackling small loaves, rolls and buns.

best knife for cutting hams and meat products, very happy with it, mind your fingers...
