Mercer Culinary Genesis Steak Knife Set | Plain Edge, High Carbon, 5-Inch

I have many Mercer knives and they all perform great. The steak knifes are no exception, especially for the money They are extremely sharp and a pleasure to use. I am only missing the fillet knife and the boning knife which I plan on buying very soon.

This is an outstanding set of steak knives made of top German steel and design. They feel good in the hand, which is what you want with an expensive slap of steak. They come razor sharp, and I maintain them with just a couple passes of the steel after each use. I only go to the electric diamond sharpener about every 6 months. One does have to be careful with them, as they are scary sharp. It looks like it will be a once-in-a-lifetime purchase. I like that.

Excellent quality knives! I also have some of the other specialty knives and had to finish out my collection. No item is too tough for these steak knives! They cut like butter and are made well and feel sturdy. I feel as if these will last me forever.

Excellent set of steak knives; nice grip, stays sharp, well balanced, cleans easily, quality materials.

Excellent product for the price. It would make an excellent gift too.

These knives are sharp. The handle is kind of rubbery. I would prefer a different handle, but over all I like them.

I looked long and hard for a good set of steak knives. Would rather pay a little more for something durable and heavier. I have no complaints. The handles hold well even with wet hands. Almost a rubbery feel. Blades and handles look great- dinner guests seem to like them. Blades seem ok for holding an edge. I haven't had to sharpen them yet but time will tell.

I have multiple Mercer knives and they're all high quality. These are no different. They hold their edge and are very well made. Another great addition.

I've used them several times. They keep a very sharp edge. They are made with 13% Chromium so if you wash by hand and dry them well after every use... and store them properly... they will never corrode and will require minimal sharpening.

Each knife arrived paper cutting and shaving sharp. Handles are rubber like and very comfortable. Well balanced and relatively light weight, as fine cutlery should be. Individually wrapped in plastic sleeves in a plain brown cardboard box. Nothing fancy there. If you prefer to cleanly slice your food, rather than shredding it apart, non-serrated edged knives are a must. Keep in mind, the edges will require honing from time to time. And people, stop throwing good quality knives in the dishwasher. There’s plenty of cheap disposable knives available in the marketplace for that.
