12-Piece Paring and Garnishing Knife Set, Stainless Steel Blade, Green

When it comes to kitchen tasks like dicing an onion or breaking down a chicken, a chef's knife can handle it all. However, there are certain jobs that require a smaller, more delicate tool. For mincing small alliums like shallots, cutting small fruits, and trimming vegetables, a paring knife is often a better option. Tasks that might feel awkward with a large chef's knife are well-suited to a paring knife. Due to their small size, paring knives allow for different grips and cutting techniques as well. You can work on a cutting board while mincing a shallot, or you can hold the knife and food up in the air and let the trimmings fall into a container below in a "grandma-style" cutting method. Additionally, paring knives are handy for various odd jobs in the kitchen. Unsure if your cake is ready in the middle and can't find a cake tester? Need to check the tenderness of a roasted beet? A paring knife can be used in both cases, as its small and narrow blade leaves minimal marks when inserted into food. Paring knives also come in handy for peeling onions and garlic, as they are more effective than just using fingers to remove dry skin.

A paring knife is a small knife with a plain edge blade that is perfect for peeling and other intricate tasks, such as deveining shrimp, removing jalapeno seeds, or creating small garnishes. It is a versatile tool, similar to a chef's knife but smaller in size. Paring knives typically range from 6 to 10 cm (2.5 to 4 inches) in length. This set includes 12 sharp stainless steel paring knives, each with a 3-inch blade and a 3.5-inch contoured ergonomic handle in a vibrant green color. These multipurpose paring knives are designed for garnishing, mincing, peeling, coring, slicing, and dicing, featuring a razor-sharp, laser-tested, tapered edge that retains sharpness for longer use and ensures optimal cutting performance. The textured contoured handle is dishwasher-safe and durable, designed for a secure grip. With a short and flexible 3-inch blade made of rust-free stainless steel, this paring knife is ideal for tasks that require precision and control.

In every kitchen, a paring knife is essential for trimming, peeling, and slicing fresh produce. It is perfect for peeling fruits and vegetables, trimming beans, and tackling a variety of tasks, both small and large.
