Chef's Knife 10" - Messermeister San Moritz Elite customer reviews: Large knife without the weight This is easily my favorite chef's knife in a collection of over 2 dozen, ranging from Wustof classic and cordon bleu, Shun, Global, Mundial, MAC, Henckels ProS, 4 star 5star, Mercer, Calphalon, etc. The Messermeister has a wider blade than almost anything out there, but is suprisingly easy to lift and hold. The handle is on the smaller side, not quite as small as Japanese knifes, but not uncomfortably large. The handle also has a small spot to engrave your initials so you can tell it apart from the other chef's knifes, but in 20 something professional kitchens from coast to coast I have never come across anyone else who carries these knives. The bolster of the knife lacks the wide heel of all but the cheapest and newest high end knives that makes it easy to sharpen and maintain, and avoids that annoying "bump" you always develop after 6months of work on every other 10"chef's I own. The editorial review may or may not mention that from the factory it comes with a much sharper blade angle than any other knife available, and it is easily the sharpest out of the box chef knife I have ever used, including the japanese models. All in all, it is the best knife I have ever owned, and the extra 4or5% that it costs over the other high end chefs knifes is more than worth it and in hind sight even if it were a hundred dollars more it would still be the best purchase I have ever made. Best Culinary Gift Ever Two great friends of mine gave me this Messermeister knife--actually, the Meridien Elite version, which simply has a different handle design. They explained that someone who loved cooking and entertaining the way I did shouldn't have my crappy knives. That was 5 years ago, and this knife still amazes and delights me. True, it is very large, and I use it for big items, like carving a huge brisket. But it also remains my favorite knife for routine tasks, like cutting onions and garlic, and even for some fine work (the tip alone can be used on tiny tasks, like scooping out a bruised bit on a peeled apple). The handle remains in absolutely perfect condition after more or less daily use for 5 years. (I don't put it in the dishwasher, though, so your mileage might vary if you do that.) This knife is remarkable!
