The Heavy Duty Paring Knife truly earned its name and reputation! This is a superb knife for handling any paring and slicing job, providing superior leverage and offering more control thanks to its slightly longer handle. We meticulously hand sharpen surgical-grade T420 high-carbon stainless steel to a razor-sharp edge. Knives are hollow ground to achieve and maintain a sharp edge that lasts. The silver handles are constructed from permanently cast brushed aluminum for remarkable durability and a beautiful satin finish. Our knives make an outstanding gift for all occasions - housewarmings, weddings, birthdays, holidays, and more.
