Millennia Color Handle Cutlery 3" Slim Paring Knife Brown

This is the third knife I’ve purchased from Mercer Culinary, following my Santoku and Chef’s knives—and I have to say, this bread knife is my favorite so far. It slices through bread effortlessly, like a knife through... well, bread! The serrated edge is razor-sharp, giving you clean cuts without tearing or crushing the loaf. The handle is ergonomic and comfortable, offering a secure grip even during longer prep sessions. Like other Mercer knives, it comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, which adds real value. The build quality is top-notch—solid, well-balanced, and clearly made to last. Mercer has consistently impressed me, and I’d absolutely recommend their knives to anyone looking for professional-grade tools at a great price.

During the summer I purchased a pellet grill and immediately started experimenting with new cooking methods and preparation techniques. My wife was getting increasingly irked at my use of her expensive set of knives and frankly I wanted to pick up something that I didn’t have to worry about damaging or ruining in some way while learning. I had a one knife budget and wanted something that could do everything, after some research I realized a chef knife would fit the bill. I looked at several before deciding on this one, basically the cost of this knife plus a sharpener with good reviews was still about half of the next closest competitor. This knife also came in red which I liked as it was easily differentiated from my wives set. This this is the right size and shape and was delivered sharp. This knife seems to be a good weight and the grip is easy to hold even when wet. After sharpening this thing really shines though. It holds an edge exceptionally well and can sharpen to a scary edge. Using a quality sharp knife I have found it easy to trim my briskets and slice my vegetables. The shape of the blade lends its self well to both tasks. I ended up picking up a cake knife to accompany the chef in my arsenal as well as some quality sheathes for both to keep them safe in storage. Overall both knives are well made and a great value for the money. All told the two knives, the sheathes and the cheap sharpener still came in under the total cost of my wife’s chef. I think mine out preforms hers and I actually catch her going to mine if I’m not looking. For the price, go for it. These things are great quality at a fraction of the cost.

I bought this as recommended by the SourdoughGal and its a hit. It is really sharp and a great price.

Extremely sharp and well made.

These are razor sharp but they're a little bit thin. Great for bread work but not so much for cutting a lot of Crostinni's through baguettes. It is an awesome fresh bread sandwich knife for line cooking.... Not and all-day prep knife... But I really like it.

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.

I came across this knife via a review by American Test Kitchen on U-Tube. It is a fantastic knife which has made my life keenly more interesting, cutting home made brad that is. It works very well on soft tomatoes as well. I feel it will work for years to come/

Excellent beginner chopper for my daughter who is learning to cook and finds our best knives heavy and a bit intimidating.

Que faca lindona!!! Eu estou comprando tudo que é utensilio pra cozinha da minha cor favorita. 💜

Light, sharp and nice grippy handle.

Sharp and simple, with an easy to grip handle. This is obviously not a fancy expensive knife, but compared with most supermarket knives it cuts better, is lighter weight, and easier to hold. It has no bolster (no bar of thicker steel near the handle); this makes the knife easier to sharpen, and in my opinion easier to use too, but if you like to have a bolster then this might not be your knife. The blade is thick enough for good strength, but not so thick that it gets in the way. (Many of the supermarket knives are so thick and heavy that slicing a carrot is like splitting wood!) If you are a specialized highly-skilled cook, you'll probably want three or four different knives that are all better than this one. But if you belong to the other 95% of people, like I do, then this knife does the job right for not too much money.
