Great paring knife for fruits and garnishments. They stay sharp and easy to resharpen when needed. Fits perfectly in your hands and no worry of the knife getting away from you when you are in a rush or your hands are wet.Bryce H. from 109 & Co. on 11/03/2020
-
I was surprised at how nice this knife was and how well it holds an edge. I bought one of these in the 4 inch size and in the 3 and 1/4 size. Both perform very well, and are a pleasure to use for different tasks.Stacy Y. from Burbank Scoop Shop Inc. on 05/08/2019

Good little paring knife with an ergonomic grip. They stayed sharp for quite awhile. Very handy for opening vacuum packed steak packages and other items.Andrea J. from Bootleggers Restaurant and Brewery on 03/03/2019

Great knife! Perfect size to complete a lot of different tasks and the handle is highly ergonomic. At this price, be sure to buy a few! Highly recommended!Patrick H. on 08/09/2018
-
This has become my "go to" paring knife. This is VERY sharp. I had to modify my paring style after finding lots of small, painless (almost surgical) paper cuts on my thumb. It passed the "too ripe tomato" test and sliced paper thin cuts on a tomato that was too ripe without crushing it. Enjoy it and be careful.Tyler M. on 06/12/2018
-
This is a great paring knife with a full-size handle. If you want a smaller handle that better fits the size of the paring blade look at the Mercer M23900.Cory H. on 04/07/2018

Great knife. Very sharp with the perfect sized handle to make it very easy to use. You can't beat the prices on the Mercer knives and so far I love every one I've ordered!David M. on 12/29/2016

I love this knife! It's sharp out of the box, but what I love best about it is the handle size and feel. It fits perfectly in my hand so I don't feel like it's so tiny I have to work to hold on to it lest it slip. It's also a really good shape for my hand. My hands are an average size, but I think it'd feel good in most hands.Kim R. on 12/03/2016

I love this paring knife. I didn't realize how dull my old one was until I used this one. I used it to slice the fat off raw chicken breasts, which usually involves sawing away, but this knife slid through everything like butter. Amazing.Eric S. on 08/07/2015
-
Great knife - would be even better if it came with a sheath for the blade as it is dangerous to mail without covers on them, but they worked perfectly for our needsHolly B. on 07/06/2015
-
I loved this knife so much i decided to buy more. It is kind of small 3 1/2 inches but it works perfectly for smaller cuts. I like the handle because even though it is a smaller knife the handle provides support and does not look like it would tier you out.Serilo H. on 06/25/2015
-

I bought two of these and I absolutely love them! Everything about it is right; blade length and width, handle size is perfect (no cramping) and the quality of the knife itself promises many years of reliable service! The most used knife in my kitchen! Highly recommended! Five stars!Martin F. on 01/18/2015
