4.0 out of 5 stars Great knife in theory - BUT: Mine had a safety issue - BEWARE!
Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2017
Color: RedVerified Purchase
I was very excited to receive my Petite Messer (as it's labeled on the blade), since I've used one for years which a few days ago got lost or thrown away. I find it to be an indispensable tool, alongside my other good knives. I won't review it further now, that's not the point of this comment.

As I washed the knife for the first time, I saw blood in the sink and I couldn't believe it. Did I (a highly knife-experienced person) actually run my finger down the business-edge of the blade while cleaning it? I was stunned.

What had happened was that the back (top) or spine of the knife blade was never deburred after machining, leaving two razor-sharp edges (the top edges of the blade in cutting position). Sliding my finger along the back edge of the blade while cleaning it sliced me pretty deep. Yow!

I've deburred/softened those edges with a stone and some fine sandpaper, like the factory should have done in the first place. Now I have an excellent and very safe knife. My finger hurts but it will heal.

Dangerous, yow!

Our garden produced an abundance of tomatoes so we did a lot of slicing , dicing and prepping .
After constantly dealing with knives that squash the delicate tomatoes , I ordered this knife out of frustration . It’s been great for all our prep.
