Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been needing a new paring knife and researched the reviews of several knives. I can't be more pleased with the quality of this knife. It is everything others have said: well balanced, super sharp, holds its edge. I also have to say that the black handled version is definitely the one to choose. I think it is the newer version and is an alternative to the brushed silver handle. Most reviewers criticized that handle for tarnishing. This handle does not have that problem, is solid (not plastic), and has a good texture for a secure grip. I would still not put it in the dishwasher - but that is just to help protect the blade. My only complaint is regarding the size. It is a 'super parer' which means it is a little larger than a normal parer. Its longer blade makes it awkward to use as a parer but it is too short to be a full function utility knife. My recommendation would be to buy the regular parer and then a second knife for the specific other tasks you have. These knives offer great value for the money so don't bother trying to get one knife for two tasks.
