Specifically designed for peeling, paring and coring rounded produce, this smartly styled knife from Wusthof is hand-ground by skilled craftsmen in Solingen, Germany, the knife-producing capital of the world. Forged blade is tempered and hardened steel with a long-lasting, V-ground edge. Full tang adds weight and balance. High-carbon, no-stain blade is easy to sharpen. With strategic curves and a shorter blade than most paring knives, this knife is ideal for peeling, cleaning, or shaping any fruits or vegetables with a rounded surface, as well as making decorative garnishes such as fluted mushrooms.
