Paring Knife, dymondwood, Damascus

Paring knife

The Paring knife is a small chef’s knife that is extremely strong and durable. It is used on smaller tasks such as slicing smaller vegetables and fruits. It should not be used on hard vegetables and may require an unsafe amount of force to complete the cut.

Despite their smaller size, they actually have a multitude of uses within the kitchen. This includes slicing, mincing and detailed cutting. It can also be used on softer vegetables as well as trimming and removing any seeds from fruit and veg. The Paring knife works perfectly for precision tasks and can even divine shrimp.

High quality steel

The Damascus steel is an old craft that originates in Syria with inspiration from India and middle eastern countries. It’s a complicated process of forging steel into a durable and patterned blade. That creates the specific pattern that these knives emulates.

The stainless steel in these knives are ideal for normal everyday kitchen work. You don't have to worry about your knives going dull due to corrosion and the need to sharpen your knives will only occur after long use.

The process of making real Damascus steel increases the quality of the steel types involved in the process. Read more about Damascus steel here. This kitchen knife set with 3 knives has cores of 7CR17 steel and is plated with Damascus steel pattern.
