Mercer Culinary Millennia Level A4 Cut Glove, 18 Ga, X-Large, Blue 3-Inch Slim Paring Knife Black M23930BL

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.

Very good serrated knife. If the price differential between the 8 inch & 9 inch is not much (the 9 inch was double the price of the 8 inch when I purchased mine) then the 9 inch I think would be a better buy as it appears to offer more clearance when cutting.

I saw these at a local bakery that specializes in artisan bread. The clerk asked if I was interested in purchasing one ,as it was what they used, and she assured me that I would not be disappointed. And she was right! I have since purchased several more as gifts.

Very Good, like it
