Victorinox Swiss Army Serrated Paring Knife, Large Handle, 3.25-Inch, Black

When it comes to precision and accuracy, the paring knife is every chef's answer. This 3¼" Spear Point Paring Knife with Serrated Edge is extremely sharp and ready for anything from slicing and dicing to peeling and garnishing. It is excellent for tackling fruits and vegetables with softer skins, such as tomatoes and peaches, but it is also perfectly suited for tasks such as expertly removing pepper seeds, coring an apple, trimming beans, or deveining shrimp with ease. The uniform cuts will help you make every meal a work of art.

A versatile paring knife is an essential tool in every kitchen. Like the chef's knife, a paring knife is meant to be used for a wide array of jobs; however, the first and foremost function of a paring knife is detail work and greater control. Its slightly curved blade and pointed tip even resemble a chef's knife, but it is a fraction of the size, which makes it great for small, precision cuts where control is essential. The sharp points of the serrated edge pierce into soft-skinned fruits and veggies to maintain a strong hold, offering better control throughout slicing. The scallops between each point reduce friction, so each slice feels effortless and prevents the knife from squashing the tender interior of whatever you are slicing. The pointed tip allows you to make intricate cuts or check the tenderness of meat and vegetables. With increased maneuverability and dexterity, you'll find endless opportunities to utilize this nimble knife.

Featuring a world-renowned blade and perfect balance, this 3¼" Parer provides a professional-grade tool optimized for home use. The tapered knife edge is ground in two directions to hold a sharp edge longer, and can easily be brought back to its original sharpness. The slightly larger handle found on this paring knife provides additional weight to ensure perfect balance, and offers additional comfort allowing for precise and effortless cuts every time. The ergonomically designed, non-slip textured handle is extremely durable and provides a sure grip and easy handling even when wet, making each cut safer and more efficient.

Whether a seasoned or novice home chef, Victorinox Swiss Army offers not only the right tools and the know-how, but most importantly, the confidence to achieve one's culinary aspirations. Expertly crafted in Switzerland since 1884, Victorinox offers a lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship.

Formerly Forschner, Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R.H. Forschner & Co. in 1937. A well-known manufacturer of butcher scales, Forschner soon became the exclusive U.S. distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the name by which Victorinox knives were known. In 2011, Victorinox began marketing all its product lines, including kitchen knives, under the common umbrella name by which the company is now popularly known – Victorinox Swiss Army.
