Are these actually made in Germany? Does it say on the package? I've heard they are made in Asia somewhere......

they are not made in germany only the steel use in the knife its self is, it is assembled in Taiwan ( i just checked the side of the blade) they are great knifes i first got hooked on them from culinary school seeing all of our knifes in out kit were mercer and ive bought many more since. i also work in a kitchen so it is great having a sharp quality knife on hand, not to expansive just incase something may happen. with proper care mercer renaissance far surpases my wusthof knife set

Finish quality? I've read on-line that these aren't quite as finished overall as the more expensive German brands, specifically the spine is sharp.

I have German made knives, using the best German steel and this 3.5" version is the equal of any of them... No sharp spine, beautifully ground and finished, sharp from the packaging, handles very well, etc... Yes, made in Taiwan of exceptionally good German steel, and I will continue to buy these for now on.

how thick is the blade and how much does it weighs,please?

The weight is 9.1 ounces so a bit over half a pound. The thickness of the blade is just a hair over 3/32” at its thickest point. Hope that helps! Love this knife by the way! You won’t be disappointed!

Is the knife blade very thick like typical German chef knife where you feel like it is wedging the food as it cuts instead of slicing through it?

It is a great knife. It slices but you need to hone your knife with a steel every so often..
