Mercer Culinary Genesis 8-Inch Stainless Steel Short Bolster Forged Chef's Knife, Black , M21078

Sharp, sturdy and really nice to use knife! Good value for money!

It’s been working really well. I’ve been using it for over a year.

The knife is great to use, I've used it more than I thought, it is versatile in that aspect. I would recommend purchasing a decent sheath (which could have been supplied included with this knife) as well as a pairing knife for jobs that require a smaller blade.

Nicely weighted and solid. 4/5 due to price.

Good 👍

This is a very reasonably priced knife, to improve much in the quality you have to spend twice as much. Having no bolster means it's far easier to sharpen. Would highly recommend it.

Great quality blade. This is my first knife which I didn't just get from a grocery store, and I'm glad I made the extra investment. It's also great value for money given its price point.

Lovely sharp knife. Easy to use and glides nicely. Not had to sharpen yet but is a very good blade.

Great knife!! My son bought me one for Christmas along with a magnetic knife stand, and I ended up buying another one that’s a different size. Cut extremely well, but do be careful that you don’t slice your hands, which my husband did the first time he used it. They’re extremely sharp! They do need to be washed and dried immediately after use so they don’t rust. Will be buying more to use as regular steak knives, and they’re holding up really well!

Great knife, very sharp from the packaging. Good balance and a nice handle. Definitely a great budget knife!

Perfect knife for anyone getting into culinary arts. knife comes sharp and ready to use, nice balance and weight. good size and feels weightless. only draw back of this knife is if your hand is not dry or has any juice from produce on them the knife tends to be harder to hold. but other than that this knife is awesome. please note if you are trying to decide if you want partial bolster or full go with full. and for comfort if considering Mercers other knife series while they are just as good blade wise the handles are easy to become gouged.

Hermoso cuchillo, vale cada peso, el mango es muy elegante, tiene un peso adecuado y es de una sola pieza, muy buen filo y tamaño de la hoja, lo recomiendo a ciegas!.

This knife has a good weight and grip. I use is as a multipurpose cooking knife. It’s of course not as luxurious as the higher priced Japanese/German knifes but for this price, it’s worth it!
