## Description

This collection calls on the rich tradition of Japanese craftsmanship to provide unsurpassed performance.

Review: For me this Nakiri is perfect in every way. The Deba 4" however, not so much. - I added this Mercer Asian Collection Nakiri to my collection of kitchen knives in March and it has been my primary food prep knife for about 5 months. I could not be happier with it. I have become a Mercer Cutlery fan over the last couple of years because every Mercer knife I own is stunning for it's price and compares favorably with knives costing three times as much. This Nakiri is no exception. Prior to this purchase I had been using a Mercer M22907 Nakiri style knife and it was great too but the blade shape more closely resembled a Santoku. Before that I used a Calphalon Santoku for a number of years. I tried the M22907 because I wanted something lighter in that Santoku shape and I bought the Asian collection Nakiri because I wanted to try this more traditional blade shape as well as the traditional handle shape. In my case I bought the traditional handle shape in the NSF material and I feel it was an excellent choice. I love everything about this knife. It is extremely light weight. The steel takes a very keen edge which lasts as long I I could reasonably hope...I sharpen about every 10 days. The simple traditional handle shape in the super grippy NSF material is perfect. I always feel like I have a solid grip on the knife no matter what I am cutting or how sticky, gooey or slippery my hands get. In addition to the two Mercer knives mentioned so far I also own a plain edge slicer, a wavy edge bread knife and several paring knives and these are just the Mercer brand knives that I own and use. I have a lot of food prep knives and the Mercers are all among my favorites. I just added a Mercer 4" Deba to my knife collection and I have to say that Mercer really messed up on this one. While the knife itself is just fine, albeit a little small, the handle for it is so tiny that it is really difficult to use. I ended up having to remove the handle and installing a longer one. The factory handle is so tiny it is only suitable for someone the size of a 10 year old. That said, with a longer, larger handle, it is pretty useful.
Review: Perfect Chinese Chef knife. Cuts so smooth. - I wanted to try this Chinese style knife just to see how to compared to a French chef knife. I was blown away by how sharp this thing is. It sliced through a lemon like a hot knife through butter. I like how high it is so it makes guiding chops with my hand easier. Overall I really like the balance of the knife. It's very easy to use and the grip feels good. I also like that you can use it to scoop food a lot easier than a French knife. I will be using this as my primary cutting knife.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone here a chef that actually used this vegetable knife?**
A: No but it is hands down the greatest knife i own for cutting vegetables, just buy it lol

**Q: Would the Nakiri Vegetable Knife, 7-Inch, be good for small winter squash like Honeynut, Delicata, Carnival, etc. and baby watermelon, etc?**
A: i use mine for vegtable and fruit chopping / slicing - i've had no issues at all - it is a thin blade so thinner slices / cuts seem easy

**Q: Blade & handle length? The description says item length is 11" and blade length is 4". It can't be true if the blade is 4"**
A: Blade length is 165mm (6.5 inches)

**Q: How wide is the blade and what is the thickness (at the spine)?  Could someone measure theirs if Mercer doesn't reply.**
A: unable to measure the width of the blade however this a great knife especially for the price.  I purchased this knife bc Christopher Kimble (milk street) talked about how he put his chef knife away and started using a 4” cleaver. Why bc the blade is equivalent and the scooping capabilities.  I have several baking scrapers blades, but I am able to scoop my diced veggies easily with this blade.  I highly recommend this blade for the price after daily use for 3+ years.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for chopping tasks, handles well, shaving sharp out of the box, great price for the quality.
*by W***R on October 30, 2025*

Absolutely love this knife. Came out of the box shaving sharp, which was surprising. My third Mercer knife, and none of them were this sharp out of the box. I ordered this because I don't really enjoy chopping too much. This makes it way easier to chop and scoop. I'm already using more fresh veggies over the pre-chopped packages. It's a large blade, so very easy for larger cutting tasks. I am not the biggest fan of round handles, but the blade makes up for any issues with the grip (which isn't bad, just not my preference). Looks very cool on my knife rack. The balance is solid, considering the handle is pretty small. Have not had any issues with hand fatigue. The blade, so far, does a lot of the work for you. Highly recommend trying this knife out.
