Overview

Peeling apples, trimming shallots and hulling strawberries are the jobs for this Henckels paring knife. A forged bolster flows into a hollow stainless handle, keeping it light, while the satin finished blade holds a fine edge.

Balance and a one piece steel look make it pleasant to use and easy to clean. All steel handles grip less than textured synthetics when hands are wet.

Who it's for

Suited to everyday prep of fruit and vegetables. People with grip issues may prefer a cushioned handle.
