Review: There is no better budget knife, period - Mercer Knifes always hold there own and this is no exception... I really love their higher end VG10 knifes and own a full set of them. The get babied and for chores I don't want to put them through I use the stamped millennial knifes. I own most of then and a few of a couple different versions such as the Nikari that I own 3 of and the 6 inch boning knife 3 as well and 3 of the 8in chefs kinfe.. The edges on the higher end knifes are much finer finishes as you would expect but for the low cost the edge is fantastic. What I do when I get a new one is run a 800, 1500, 3000 and 6000 whetstone treatment on it keeping the exact factory bevel (no need to reprofile as the factory bevels are excellent as they are, I will say on the Nikari I do reprofile it to a 11 degree bevel as the thin blade is just so ultra razor sharp with a 11 degree edge over the 15 degree factory edge that it's worth the it if you have a set of DMT or other high quality Diamond stones that I go for it and the steel is hard enough to hold up to a 11 degree angle and keep a edge so long as you are cutting friuts and vegs or slicing tender cuts of meat as the Nikari is intended to do) then over a progressive stropping starting with 3 micron Diamond paste on high quality leather then down to 1 micron to half micron then to .25 micron and finishing with .1 micron. This will give you a edge that will whittle hair even on the thick blades like the 12in chef knife... For most people out the box will be more then good enough as they will shave no problem out the box but I have OCD with sharp knifes and love taking edges to a ultra mirror finish that is literally sharper then a razor blade. At 15 degrees with the method I use on the chefs knifes the edge will hold up extremely with a simple strop on the .1 micron strop after you are finished with it just 5 or so strops per side and that's it and your edge will be flawless (this is how I treat all my knifes). Realistically a home cook could simple strop the knifes once a week even with the factory edge and have razor sharp knifes that don't need to touch a stone for a month or two... If you work edges like I do then the bevel and edge will hold up for an extremely long time with just a few hits on the strop and not need to visit the stones or diamond plates but maybe 2 times a year. The Japanese steel used in these knifes is fantastic and punches way above its price point and holds its edge well but is a little tough to sharpen if you don't have the equipment and or skills to do so... Their German steel knifes are deff easier to sharpen with just a 1k and 3k grit combo whetstone but will not hold a edge near as well as the jap steel will so there is a trade off there. Anyone that's on a budget and needs excellent knifes... Looking further then these is a waste of time. The steel is excellent, the factory edge is excellent, the knifes performance as a whole is excellent.... A 12 to 15 dollar knife that will hold its own with 100 dollar knifes out the package is exactly what these are. They aren't pretty, they aren't flawlessly balanced but they ARE low budget high performance knifes that leaves very very little on the table performance wise versus knifes costing literally 10x...

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the mercer culinary ultimate white 11-inch slicer, wavy edge be sharpened?**
A: it has been my experience that having a serrated edge knife costs more to have it sharpened than replacing it.  Especially this one, as it is a rather lower end cost one.  I wanted to sharpen my own a while back and company quoted me like $25 to do it.  It's a very labor intensive process with having to sharpen each itty bitty groove.  that's why I have a new one now :)   HTH

**Q: How is this different from the Genesis series blade?**
A: These are bare bones blades meant to get beat up doing rugged tasks like boning and quartering animal carcasses. When you need a knife that you can rely on working on a line this is the type you want to grab. When you're looking for fine cuts and sophistication you'll want a higher quality blade like the genesis. If you notice, the taper on these commercial blades is a bit sharper; they do this to save money because they don't have to feather all the way back to the spine. It makes the blade look cheap but that's part of what ultimately makes these knives invaluable in commercial kitchens.

**Q: Is it made in China?**
A: So china right

**Q: Would this cut a coconut?**
A: The 3" paring knife, not in my opinion. Though I like the paring knife and use it often, I had difficulty cutting raw cabbage with it. It's not sturdy enough for cutting a head of cabbage. It's sharp enough, but not sturdy enough.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing for the price.
*by A***X on 2 June 2024*

For the price dont walk pass this knife. Comes nice and sharp, keeps its edge well and as long as you wash and dry it after use is always ready to go with a beautiful finish. Great gift for someone starting out cooking at home that needs to understand that a good knife makes cooking way easier and more fun. Or grab a few and have one ready to go all the time.
