Amazon.com Review: A supplier to the vast majority of cooking academies, Mercer Cutlery offers the Genesis Collection of kitchen knives to provide professional quality to the home chef. Comfortable, durable, and efficient, Genesis knives feature fully forged, single-piece blades made from high-carbon, no-stain German steel. Their taper-grind edges are polished by hand, and their substantial bolsters provide helpful balance. Black nonslip Santoprene handles make Genesis knives comfortable and secure in the grip, improving efficiency and safety in the kitchen.
This Genesis 3-1/2-inch paring knife is an indispensable tool for slicing small fruit, trimming vegetables, and creating garnishes. A complement to the Genesis chef's, carving, and santoku knives, the piece is made in Taiwan using European components and technology. It should be washed by hand for best results and carries Mercer's one-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

Mercer Cutlery Genesis 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife
These knives are wonderful. We purchased 2 after reading about them in Cook's Illustrated. Now I'm back for an additional boning and bread knife. They handle well, hold an edge, and are very affordable.
Rating: - Just the right size
I have been looking for a meat fork this size for a long time. It is easy to handle and substantial weight without having tines that were ridiculously long. A good buy.
Rating: - Excellent paring knife
I received this paring knife after sampling and handling Wusthof Classic and a variety of J.A. Henkel knives. The Mercer has a different gripping (a special polymer rubber) which feels perfect in your hand and gives absolutely nothing up to either the Wusthof or the Henkel. Most culinary schools and many chefs swear by these. Highly recommended.
