## Description

Mercer Culinary Renaissance 2.5-Inch Forged Peeling Knife

Review: Really nice chef knife for the price. - Nice quality knife. It is a pretty thick knife so I have some issues with wedging with onions. I have not had issues with rust as I hand wash my knives and do not put them in a dishwasher. Feels comfortable to pinch grip and with a nice blade design for rock chopping. It was pretty sharp out of the package, but I did end up touching it up with a Shapton 1000 and stropped it.
Review: Worth every nickel - I've been using this knife for a couple years now has not lost his Edge once. And I use it anything from slicing dicing to splitting chicken. Nice and heavy in the hand. Very satisfied

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Every Bit As Good As My Zwilling Pro Knives!
*by H***Y on August 20, 2025*

I stumbled onto this while reading reviews on some Zwilling steak knives, the reviewer mentioned that these Mercer's are great, and MUCH less $$, but same forged quality and sharpness, so I tossed it in my cart WITH the Zwillings that were there. Even before it was out of the package I was impressed with the look, feel and size. Man! Is this baby great! I LOVE the size, I have small lady hands. In fact, after 2 days of using it, when the Zwilling's arrived, I didn't even open them from the shipping box and returned them! I'm going to order the 5" size as well to use for BF and guest steak knives ( regular hand size people! ). And BONUS! The handle is an exact match to my other Zwilling Pro knives that I LOVE and use every day! Next time I need a gift for someone who loves to cook as I do, I will DEFINITELY be buying them a Mercer (or 2!) The price / quality is unbeatable!
