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.

The Paring Knife is made with AICHI AUS-10 steel, which offers an even better balance between lasting sharpness and durability with 2x the carbon content of some other “premium” knives.
Our unique sloped bolster pulls double duty: the sloped shape encourages a proper “pinch grip” for comfort and control, while the bolster’s placement creates better access to the full length of the blade.
While most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees, we use more acute 15 degree angles for a noticeably sharper cutting face.
I have several Misen knives and both me and my wife love them. They come sharp and stay that way . Also very comofortable in the hand. Highly recommend this knife.
The Misen 3.5” paring knife fits my hand as well as my style of use. It comes extremely sharp and holds an edge. Handle is comfy. I have purchased several as gifts.
This a great little knife. It holds its cutting edge well ,fits well in my smaller hands and cuts effortlessly. Great knife without a big price tag.
Got the recommendation for this knife from my brother. Now there are 2 of us that love this knife. Sharp. Feels so comfortable in my hand. So well made.
These knives are all incredibly sharp and of the quality I expect from Misen I highly recommend these for anyone in search of new knives.
