Description: Handmade by Jim Arbuckle, this slender paring knife is an excellent choice for the chef that wants a knife that is as attractive as it is useful. This piece is handmade and one-of-a-kind - there's not another one like it in the world!
This paring knife is a perfect choice for detail tasks - from taking the eyes out of potatoes to removing the heads from tomatoes. The slender blade combines control and precision.
The blade is made from high performing, low care 154CM stainless steel and has an heirloom quality hand-rubbed satin finish. It was hardened and triple tempered to Rc 58-59 for excellent edge retention. The blade is distal tapered to lighten it and create a perfect balance. The spine is nicely rounded for a comfortable grip.
Osage orange wood scales are set on the full tang and will hold up well to the high demands of either a commercial or home kitchen. The handle is shaped with a deep choil or semi-circular cut-out in which the forefinger rests comfortably. This makes the knife easy to hold and offers several different grip options.
Excellent fit and finish throughout!
