Everyday paring knife for small prep

The Wusthof Classic 3 1/2 inch serrated paring knife handles small tasks like dicing shallots or cutting soft fruits such as pears and kiwis. Its razor-sharp blade slices effortlessly through fruits, vegetables and meat. Forged in Solingen, Germany from a single piece of high-carbon no-stain steel, it is built for daily kitchen use.

Forged high-carbon blade with scalloped edge

The scalloped serration grips slippery skins and soft flesh without tearing, giving clean cuts on tomatoes, citrus and delicate produce. One-piece forging from specially tempered high-carbon steel provides outstanding strength and extraordinary sharpness that is easy to maintain. The compact blade offers precise control for detail work but cannot replace a larger chef's knife for heavy chopping.

Full-tang construction and classic riveted handle

The full-tang design extends the steel through the handle for balance and durability, while the traditional triple-riveted synthetic handle resists fading and discolouration. No sheath, sharpener or block is included, so buyers must provide their own storage and edge-care routine. The knife is not suited for boning, cleaving or any task that requires a longer or heavier blade.

Questions about this item

Will the 3 1/2 inch serrated blade handle the same small fruits and shallots I currently prep with a larger chef's knife?

The scalloped serrations grip soft skins like tomatoes, kiwis and pears so the 3 1/2 inch blade slices cleanly without crushing, making it ideal for the detailed work a larger chef's knife cannot do as precisely.

How can I verify the high-carbon steel blade holds its factory edge after the first few uses?

A properly forged high-carbon no-stain blade should slice ripe tomato skin with almost no downward pressure; if it glides through without tearing, the edge is performing as intended.

Does the box include a blade guard or sheath, or must I buy one separately for safe drawer storage?

The knife ships in its retail packaging only; a blade guard or magnetic strip for safe storage is not included and must be purchased separately.
