Sure, this little guy is brilliant for delicate work like mincing garlic or removing the stems from a bushel of kale. But a paring knife is actually designed to cut foods you need to hold in your hand (rather than on the cutting board), like small peaches or strawberries. In fact, "paring" comes from the Persian "pari," which means air. And this one is indeed light as air. And razor sharp. FINAL SALE — Cannot combine with other discounts. No returns or exchanges.
