Mercer Culinary M24307PL 7" Nakiri Knife

Great knife for vegetable prep. Super sharp and retains the edge well. Wide blade makes it easy to keep parallel cuts in tomatoes, looks like I ran it through a slicing machine. Excellent value.

I have never had such a knife as the Mercer Culinary M24307PL 7" Usuba / Nakiri Knife before. It has a wide blade that is super thin. For some reason, I thought the entire knife was 7 inches. In fact, the blade is 7 inches. Even with my duller knife, I would try to slice green onions very think, only to mash it up. This knife changed all that with clean cuts and cuts through the onion like butter. This is now my go-to knife for super-thin cuts.

I never knew I needed a Nakiri knife until I first held this one in my hand! The flat edge instead of a traditional tip gives me comfort that I'm not going to stab myself. And the surface is large enough to rest it on fingers of opposite hand while cutting vegetables. It is very sharp and it is a breeze to cut any and all vegetables with the Mercer Nakiri knife. Prep work was never this exciting and easy before!

This is a good quality Nakiri knife. It has a sharp blade and it doesn't dull easily. It is great for cutting vegetables. I would recommend!

I absolutely love this knife. I have purchased this knife twice the first time I purchased it, it ended up stolen but I love it so much and the price was so great I had to get another one.

This has become one of my go-to knives. It keeps showing new uses. originally bought to finely slice vegetables, which it does beautifully, I thought I'd try to make thin slices of raw beef and Voila! paper thin for wrapping and because of the width of the blade, there was no wandering on the cut. At one point I was slicing a delicate fortified bread. Even with a superb serrated bread knife, the bread was too crumbly to survive and look good. In desperation, i tried this Nakiri knife and produced perfectly smooth and well-textured slices which allowed for later toasting without burnt high spots. This Nakiri takes and holds a keen edge. We run it over a ceramic steel before every use and the results reflects well on our kitchen skills.

I use this knife all the time for cutting veggies. For sushi veggies you want them super thin, and the blade on this knife is super thin and works well for that. Perfect for cutting cucumber skins in a solid sheet. I like the handle, because wearing gloves and rolling sushi makes for slippery handles. These are rubbery and have a sturdy grip so no slipping.

This is a great sushi knife. If you are looking for a knife to make your sushi knife successful this is it. Would definite recommend this to all professional and home chefs.

This is a knife that I use occasionally and it seems to be holding up well, I was really concerned with the lower price but so far so good

I am impressed with This mercer 7 inch Usuba knife, such a comfortable handle and such a nice sharp edge everyone in my kitchen took a turn using it today when we first got it we were all impressed and we're already to get it set for ourselves

Fantastic I need to use it when I'm at work I really like it I'm going to work it's really sharp it's a very nice night

I believe that this Mercer Usuba knife is the finest cutlery value for the money that I've ever owned. The blade is easily kept razor-sharp with only light honing of the hot blade with a ceramic rod. I'm definitely going to try some of the other Mercer products to compare to my more expensive knives, and I anticipate that they too will prove to be superb quality for an economical price.

Excellent sharpness right out of the box, and many hours of daily use on a variety of hard and soft produce shows great edge retention. I expect sharpening to be an easy task, as well. The handle had me skeptical at first, but it has just the right amount of give vs. firmness to give an excellent non-slip grip. I'm amazed to be typing this, but this inexpensive 7" nakiri with ry?ba edge has displaced my usual Henckel's 6.5" nakiri simply because the handle is more comfortable to use for extended periods of time. Overall, having used this for vegetable and fruit prep over the past couple of months has made my life easier, and I expect it will continue to be a kitchen favorite for years.

Used the Mercer M24307 7" Usuba / Nakiri Knife to cut a cantaloupe. The knife just makes cutting so much easier and fun. Easy to cut cantaloupe. Shipped Fast.

This knife is basically a glorified razor blade. You can cut vegetables super thin, and it's got a decent balance so it's easy to control. I almost said 4 stars because I don't totally love the handle, but I think it's an excellent product for what you pay, and if you want something nicer you should pay more.

Very good very sharp also had there Santoku knife I even like the handle better than the wood I use for everything not only VEG.

this are one of my collection of mercer branded knife and this Mercer M24307 7" Usuba / Nakiri Knife great using it on my kitchen

This is a very nice, very light knife! It slices through carrots and other similar veggies. I would not use this on squash as the blade is very lightweight. I am very happy with the quality and would definitely purchase again.

This is the second time I am purchasing this knife. There are some very expensive Usuba knives but I don't like to leave them around at work. For the price this Mercer does a great job. I use it for chopping vegetables as well as tuna for spicy tuna rolls. A good buy (everyone likes to borrow it at work)

I love this knife! Very thin and lightweight blade make it a breeze to chop through veggies! I had originally purchased this knife for home use, but take into work for all my small prep tasks!

Received this kife and used it to cut carrots and celery root(a real test for any knife).I am very pleased with this blade and how the non slip handle feels while in use.

This is a great and cheap knife to have. Very sharp and it cuts really smooth. Its also easy to clean and to keep sharp.

The Mercer 7 inch Usuba/Nakiri knife is a well built knife! Very affordable price for an average sized knife! Good for small knife prep tasks!!
