Sharp and comfortable! *by on Reviewed in the United States September 3, 2020* I have many knives in varying price ranges. I'm a chef and I leave my Japanese knife at work so it's always there, and was looking to replace it (before it grows legs) with something a little less pricey and more easily replaceable.At around 18 dollars, I was quite surprised at the quality of this knife. The molded handle fits nicely in the hand, and there are rubber grippy things on it for when you're getting messy. I was almost afraid of the edge, as it was so sharp I took a patch of hair off my arm like a razor. I love everything about it, especially the entry level price. I'll be ordering another one for the house, as I'll be taking this to work to put it to work.The only box I can't check just yet is its ability to hold an edge. Not a huge issue for me as I have sharpening tools, it's just a matter of how often I have to hone or sharpen it, but for those who use their knives until they can't cut butter, could be a bigger issue.So that remains to be seen, but I sure enjoyed cutting up an onion into slivers last night.The only thing it doesn't do, and this is hard to explain, some knives almost "fall through" the item you are cutting, because of weight. This knife is fairly light and you'll have to contribute to the effort made by the knife to get through difficult projects.5 stars and I'm getting another!*update- Ive now used the knife at work every day for several months. That is a lot of use.Each time I pull it from the drawer I run it over my steel, and that just lets it be its sharpest. Ive also noticed that there are several ways to grip it, one of my favorite it to gently grip it and just let my 4 fingers lift the handle, then push downwith my palm, it really helps prevent fatigue and cramping.You'll really enjoy this knife.3 of my friends have purchased one after trying it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Price and Good Product. *by on Reviewed in the United States October 16, 2025* Perfectly Ergonomic handle, ferociously sharp and an overall, light blade.BTW: I Collect, sell and customize Knives and Samurai swords, and I'm picky. The carbon/chromium alloy balance on this makes for a great blade-HAND WASH IT! Absolute Bargain and a pleasure to-Carefully-use. I enjoy this Mercer more than my pretentious German steel, heavy monster--Great for pairing a whole chicken, but everyday use, this 8" Mercer is Superior--And great deal. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Definitely worth trying. Great Knives! *by on Reviewed in the United States October 12, 2025* These knives are commercial kitchen knives meant to take a little abuse. The knives are a little thin and have a nice edge that lasts. After many tries to find a decent sharpener or sharpening system, I just buy a new knife or two rather than bother when they dull. Only about $20-$25 and free shipping, and love the colors. Tall enough for my large hands and thicker fingers. A little brittle, my dad tends to drop them onto a tile floor and when my Jamaican brother in law who is a professional chef comes over and whacks chicken bones into pieces I cringe, but easier to replace than my expensive Guy Fieri knife, or my Dalstrong Gladiator, RIP. I have tried other brands of commercial kitchen knives and the quality and aesthetics just aren't there. I have bought several sets of Mercer pro series knives as gifts and for myself and there are good quality. These do it for me. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mercer Culinary Millennia Colors 10-Inch Chef's Knife, Blue - Mercer Culinary Innovations 10 by 2-Inch Knife Guard --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/30894264-mercer-culinary-millennia-colors-10-inch-chefs-knife-blue](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/30894264-mercer-culinary-millennia-colors-10-inch-chefs-knife-blue) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
