These knives are just great. Got them almost 2 years ago and they still do not need sharpening. We use them daily. They are very durable, perfect size. Must have.

Well made paring knife that can be used to differentiate allergen free food options and avoid cross contamination. For guests with food allergies, trace residue can be enough to make them sick, so having designated tools really reduces this risk.

We use the color coded handles to organize our kitchen and keep certain colors in specific sections. Great quality for the price for the average kitchen use.

Very happy with this paring knife for the price I paid. It is sharp and comfortable in the hand for general use. While I am sure there are sharper or more comfortable knives out there, for a casual home cook, this fits the bill.

This is our go to knife for all small cutting jobs in the kitchen. Durable handle and strong, thin blade make it the number one blade for many uses.

Excellent budget knife to give to guests for prepping small vegetables, citrus, or roots. Comes very sharp from the factory and the plastic handle is comfortable and grips well even with wet or slimy hands, Strongly recommend! !

Reasons why you need a green knife: It stands out among other utensils to remind you that it's sharp, and can harm you. Green's your favorite color. Or, more practically, it's a color-coding system that the health department loves to avoid cross contamination and allergens. This is a nice, sharp, inexpensive knife perfect for small tasks. The green is bright and cheerful, and the knife is easy to clean.
