Don't know why we didn't purchase sooner.
After purchasing & using this Mercer knife set for over 4 months I am wondering why we didn't invest in a quality set of kitchen knives before.The knife's are very sharp so be careful when first time using. I use them as quality tools and take proper care of them. I expect no problems with the knifes in the future.Some reviews have stated the knifes have rusted or handles have come off. I think the reviews were for other knife sets as the Mercer set is high grade stainless steel and one piece so handles aren't seperate.One issue to consider is storage UNDER a upper cabinet on counter top. There is not enough head room to remove a knife from glass holder. Angled storage would be a better option if placing knife set on counter under upper cabinets.In our kitchen configuration that is not a problem and we love the glass display knife holder.
Thank you for your feedback

5.0 out of 5 stars The value feels like theft
Reviewed in Canada on March 16, 2024
The value of these knives are outstanding; I cannot believe the cost of these compared to other knives of the same quality that cost 3x as much. Perfect weight, balance, half-bolster for better longevity and perfect pinch-grip, full-tang, great steel, and this set has just the essentials without any frills like those 22-piece sets (minus the boning knife, which isn’t really necessary for most). Came sharp too - scary sharp.

The stand is surprisingly nice too - solid and sturdy, with a fully padded base that is weighed down, likely filled with sand. Will update the review in future after more long-term use. Likely a loyal Mercer fan moving forward.
