The Granny Paring knife is a useful little knife with a specially designed reverse-curved shape that cuts and slices in any direction. The Granny Paring is especially well suited to small, spherical foods or for detailed work that needs a bit of finesse. 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.
