The Sharpest
"This is the best knife of all the Messermeister I own. Must have knife."
My new go-to
"I think I found my favorite go-to knife. Tend to use this over my chef knife now"
At first I was disappointed
"At first I was disappointed by the knife, it was sharp, but didn't seem as sharp as my other Olivia Elite Messermeister chef knife. So I ran it through my whetstone and afterwards, the knife came out incredibly sharp, cutting with ease especially with thicker meats or vegetables. Great knife though for some reason mine mine didn't come sharpened right out of the box."
I love the knife
"I love the knife"
Great knife
"Great knife. Well balanced and glides thru vegetables. Completed my set. Love them all"
German Quality
"I love my Nakiri vegetable knive. It very high quality and very well balanced. It’s also quite resonably priced compared to others."
Another fantastic blade
"This is one of my wife's favorite knives. We don't have much of a need for a meat clever, but this knife is perfect for chopping vegetables."
MM has had this vegetable
"MM has had this vegetable knife in production for many years; I've had mine for nearly 20 years. Mine has seen many miles in commercial kitchens and is currently my go-to knife for at home use. I can't tell you how many of my cooks have used my knife over the years and then gone out and got one for themselves. I barely pick up my 8" chef knife anymore, unless I'm fabricating meats. Experimented with numerous Nakiri options, but I prefer the slight angle and slightly taller blade of the MM. Ridiculously good value at $100."
Great Balance, Great Knifes. Adding
"Great Balance, Great Knifes. Adding more soon!"
