Wusthof Classic Paring Knife 8 cm. Black

These are the best knives I’ve ever owned. I was able to get them on a sale at Williams Sonoma, and I’m glad I waited because I got a great price on an excellent quality knife. These knives are heavy, durable, and extremely sharp. They cut through just about everything. Yes the price tag is steep, but worth every cent. I’m a firm believer that everybody should own at least one quality knife, and Wusthof is definitely my brand. Of all of my new knives, this one gets the most use. It’s perfect for cutting small vegetables. It sliced through my tomatoes as if they were nothing, and does not damage the flesh

purchased the Wusthof 36 piece mega block set because ass's a chef having amazing knives is important. These knives never disappoint. The handle gives a good grip. The take an edge quickly and easily and hold that edge for a good while. They make precision cuts a breeze. They clean easily. The design is sexy and draws the eye of others. These knives g go everywhere I'm cooking.

This is an essential knife in every kitchen! It’s amazing the difference a high quality knife can make. This is perfect for all small jobs, whether it’s chopping herbs or slicing cheese for snacking. It’s important to maintain the edge with a sharpener and steel (I recommend also Wusthof for both of these, and watch a video on how to use them properly. You want to protect your investment with proper care!).

A very handy knife that should be a staple tool in every cook’s kitchen. A perfect tool when handling fruit coring duties, garnishing, or bar fruit. Cost I very reasonable considering the everyday uses that this knife offers. A definite recommend since it fits in a knife drawer or in a small sleeve. A superior product to department store versions that require rejoining at a much greater frequency.

This thing is like a razor. Be VERY careful, I literally barely touched the edge of my first knuckle handling it, and it actually drew LOTS of blood from a tiny, deep cut. Touched. It. Goes through lemons like hot butter. I have a love-hate thing with this knife. We have the entire knife block set we got probably 15+ years ago, and the paring knife that came with that set wasn’t this sharp on the first day I unwrapped it.

In my opinion, this is the best knife you can get yourself in this price range. Wusthof in general is the best you can get your kitchen for the cost. I use this 3-inch paring knife for all my daily kitchen needs. It makes short work of cucumbers for salads as well as aiding in peeling (bye-bye kiwi skin!). As with any knife, you must always exercise caution, of course. But this paring knife is a kitchen essential. Also makes a great gift for a wedding shower; you can pair it with other Wusthof knives or other kitchen accessories (like a cutting board).

These knives are great. Top quality. Sharp edge. Easy to use. Cleans easily and stays sharpened. Highly recommend. This is a great easy to use easy to hold daily knife. I use it for small projects.

**Great Pairing Knife**

As a knife collector I've used many knives over the years. Personally, I prefer American or German made knives. This is hands down the best pairing knife I've ever used! Well made and easy to sharpen when needed. You will not be disappointed with this one!

Great size

I love my pairing knife! It’s extremely sharp and great for small job. It’s so easy to peel lemons and limes even when the rinds start to dry and are hard. My larger knives are just cumbersome and don’t appear to be as sharp.

I had no idea I owned this knife but it's the best knife in my drawer.

8 years ago my wife and I moved into an apartment and found this knife abandoned in a drawer and put it into our daily rotation of silverware. We never really put any thought into it; it was just another piece of random silverware in a drawer. Just tonight over dinner we started talking about how much we secretly loved this knife. We aren't fancy knife people so it never registered to us that this thing isn't a Walmart special. Imagine our surprise when we figured out what we had. I cannot stress enough how much we've used this thing. 8 years of almost daily use and it's as sharp as it's always been. I don't think I've ever sharpened it but it's still one of the best cutting knifes I've have. I'm absolutely buying more knives from this company. 10/5 stars
