Measuring at just under 4 inches, the Paring Knife offers complete precision and ensures the Knife glides as you peel. Crafted in the Knife capital of the world, Thiers, France, the Paring Knife is forged by a 5th generation bladesmith and hardened with nitrogen gas. Its design combines the utilitarianism of German blades with the precision of Japanese knives. Instead of being cheaply welded together, all of their Knives are full tang and fully forged, meaning they are crafted from a single rod of stainless steel that extends from tip to handle, resulting in sharper, perfectly balanced blades.
