Warp-knitted meshes have been widely used for structural reinforcement of rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible composite materials. In order to meet the performance requirements of different engineering applications, four typical warp-knitted meshes (rectangular, square, circular, and diamond) were designed and developed. The mechanical behaviors of these meshes under mono-axial and multi-axial tensile loads were compared. The influence of the initial notch length and orientation on the mechanical performance was also analyzed. The results showed that the biaxial tensile behavior of warp-knitted meshes tended to be more isotropic. The anisotropy level of the diamond warp-knitted mesh was the lowest (λ = 0.099), while the rectangular one was the highest (λ = 0.502). The notch on a significantly anisotropic mesh was propagated along the direction of larger modulus, while for a not remarkably anisotropic mesh, notch propagation was probably consistent with the initial notch orientation. The breaking strength of warp-knitted meshes with the same initial notch orientation decreased with the increase in notch length in both the wale and course directions. For warp-knitted meshes with the same initial notch length, the breaking strength in the wale direction was kept stable at different notch orientations, while that in the course direction decreased remarkably with notch orientation from 0° to 90°.
