Mercer Culinary M23560 Renaissance 6-Inch Stainless Steel Forged Flexible Boning Knife, Black

We attempt to butcher a lot of our own meat. I've never used a flexible knife before, and was skeptical, but after a recommendation, thought I would give it a go. We get so much more meat off the bone, it is super sharp and feels very safe to use.

I bone a lot of meats and poultry , this knife is super flexible allowing me to stay close to the bone and take as much meat away as possible. It's a case of the knife does the work and not my muscles, great design

It is a good knife, but loses its sharpness quite fast.

Good knife, flexible, retains edgeWhy did you pick this product vs others?:Wanted a decent boning knife for an affordable price

This knife will take a beating and come back strong. I received the 8" chef as part of my knife kit, and after using wusthofs in kitchens I can say that what the Mercer reps say really is true. The price difference is simply because Mercer doesn't advertise, they don't pay celebrity chefs to use their knives. They have the quality and I would say better fit and finish quality than the other German knife Brand's I've tried for a lesser cost. Same steel, same edge retention but inexpensive

Have to say I love my Mercers I have purchased recently. Have high end Wusthof and Henckels and I am just as happy with these if not more actually. These are a true value without having to feel like you skimped in the slightest. If I had to do over....these would be all I would purchase. Save yourself money.....give these a try. Highly recommend!

The blade looks fine, but the handle came with minor scratches and dents. I guess it’s because the packaging plastic shell doesn’t cover the handle. I’ll keep it as it doesn’t affect the performance much but it is a bit annoying.Update:I used it once and it's super sharp out of box. Good value.

Needed some knives for my kitchen that weren't too expensive, but still a quality product and Mercer is exactly that.
