Después de comprar un cuchillo en el supermercado, y que éste se rompiera en poco tiempo, decidí buscar un mejor cuchillo. Este cuchillo es sumamente filoso y es ideal para rebanar verduras finamente como papa, zanahoria, y calabacitas. El cuchillo de 8" (20 cm) es de tamaño normal para la mayoría de las personas, sin embargo, algunos podrían pensar que es un poco largo. Para esto recomiendo el de 6" (15 cm) que a lo mejor se adapta mejor para quienes tienen manos pequeñas y poco espacio para cortar. Recomiendo también estuches de guarda para evitar que la hoja se golpee en el cajón donde se guarde, y para evitar que alguien accidentalmente se corte con el filo, ya que es bastante afilado. El cuchillo está hecho de acero al alto carbono lo que quiere decir que aunque es un poco más suave que el acero inoxidable, el filo que tiene la hoja es muy fino. También debido a esto el cuchillo requiere de afiladas más constantes para mantenerse en óptimas condiciones. Esto no es un problema para uso casero, pero aquellos que utilicen el cuchillo diariamente de manera profesional deben recordar afilar el cuchillo regularmente con una piedra de acentar.

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.

Great everyday knife. Textured handle gives great control, easy to keep sharp. I don't think you can get a better knife at twice the price.
