## Description

When it comes to precision and accuracy, the paring knife is every chef's answer. This 3¼" Spear Point Paring Knife with Serrated Edge Spear Point is extremely sharp and ready for anything from slicing and dicing to peeling and garnishing. Excellent for tackling fruits and vegetables with softer skins, such as tomatoes and peaches, but it is also perfectly suited for tasks such as expertly removing pepper seeds, coring an apple, trimming beans, or deveining shrimp with ease. The uniform cuts will help you make every meal a work of art. A versatile paring knife is an essential tool in every kitchen. Like the chef's knife, a paring knife is meant to be used for a wide array of jobs; however, the first and foremost function of a paring knife is detail work and greater control. Its slightly curved blade and pointed tip even resemble a chef's knife, but, is a fraction of the size, which makes it great for small, precision cuts where control is essential. The sharp points of the serrated edge pierce into soft skinned fruits and veggies to maintain a strong hold, offering better control throughout slicing. The scallops between each point reduce friction, so each slice feels effortless and prevents the knife from squashing the tender interior of whatever you are slicing. The pointed tip allows you to make intricate cuts or check the tenderness of meat and vegetables. With increased maneuverability and dexterity, you'll find endless opportunities to utilize this nimble knife.Featuring a world-renowned blade and perfect balance, this 3¼" Serrated Swiss Classic Parer provides a professional-grade tool optimized for home use. The ergonomically designed, non-slip textured handle provides a sure grip and easy handling even when wet, making each cut safer and more efficient. Both lightweight and durable, this parer's handle offers perfect balance, allowing for precise and effortless cuts every time. Whether a seasoned, or novice home chef, Victorinox Swiss Army offers not only the right tools and the know-how, but most importantly, the confidence to achieve one’s culinary aspirations. Expertly crafted in Switzerland since 1884, Victorinox offers a lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship. Formerly ForschnerIn 1937 Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R.H. Forschner & Co. A well-known manufacturer of butcher scales, Forschner soon became the exclusive U.S. distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the name by which Victorinox knives were known.In 2011 Victorinox began marketing all its product lines, including kitchen knives, under the common umbrella name by which the company is now popularly known – Victorinox Swiss Army. Today, Victorinox Swiss Army still sells a handful of accessories, including the High Heat Turner line, under the Forschner name. Care and UseBe good to your knives and they’ll be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife!Hand WashingVictorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately.DishwasherWhile this knife is dishwasher safe, we still recommend hand washing, as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge.Maintaining your Knife’s EdgeFor optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best, but remember that a honing steel will not sharpen a dull knife. Honing steels are maintenance tools and are used to help keep an already sharp blade from degrading. During use, a knife edge becomes rolled or turned from direct contact with cutting boards, bones or other hard objects. In this case, honing is necessary to straighten the edge of the knife. After significant use, the steel particles become damaged and the edge cannot be brought back by honing, so sharpening is necessary. If your knives are dull, pitted, or you see visible nicks on the cutting edge, you’ll need to sharpen with a Swiss Sharp Handheld Sharpener (49002) or bring to a professional for re-sharpening.History and HeritageIn 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers’ union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldier’s Knife and in 1897 with the Officer’s Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as “inoxydable” and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox. It is from those humble beginnings that a worldwide icon was born.Today, Victorinox is still owned and operated by the Elsener family, and both the company and family still resides in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality
*by K***T on September 18, 2025*

I already had one of these amazing little knives, but wanted another because I use it so often. I was very happy to have found it and it arrived very quickly. This small, serrated knife is perfect for coring strawberries, slicing small fruits and vegetables, cheese, etc. It has a permanent place in my knife-holder on the counter so it is always within easy reach. It is very sharp and easy to hold. I can't say enough good things about Victorinox knives. They are the best!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More bang for your buck
*by K***. on April 7, 2015*

I am writing this review after two full years of using this knife, and it hasn't let me down yet! I am a three knife kind of guy: one chefs knife, one bread knife, and one paring knife. It keeps my kitchen uncluttered, simple, and most importantly costs less money. That being said, I put more value in quality than price - my daily chef knife has been the $150 MAC Pro for years. When I first started looking for a paring knife, of course I was attracted to the big names like Wüsthof, Global, and Henkels. However, after reading the reviews I decided to give this little guy a chance. I'm willing to spend $40 on a paring knife, but I can certainly spend a few bucks to see if I like this one more.I'm so glad I did - this knife lives up to the all the other glowing reviews. It comes sharp out of the box and has stayed that way with very little decline in my time using it. The handle is comfortable enough in my hand (I'm right handed, but it's symmetrical so a lefty would also find it easy to use). The blade holds up to tough use but is slightly flexible so it feels more like an extension of my hand. The best part is the price! Great performance for 1/3 to 1/5 the price of comparable products. That's a winner in my book.If there is a negative, perhaps I would prefer that it had a little more heft. If weight is very, very important to you, go give an all-metal Global a try. Otherwise, pick up one of these knives and get a great product for a fraction of the cost of another paring knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE THIS KNIFE!
*by N***2 on July 19, 2024*

While dieting a few years ago, this knife was my best friend! I lived on protein shakes and salads. This knife and I BOTH got one he!! of a workout!I cannot even tell you how many miles of English cukes I’ve cut, or how many HUNDREDS of pounds of lettuce, spinach, cherry tomatoes, grapes, pickles, mandarin oranges, apples, peppers, celery, cooked chicken, etc. that this handy little thing has easily cut through. It is still sharp as new and cuts as well as the first day. (ALWAYS hand-washed.)It feels very comfortable in my (female) hand. I find it to be a very manageable size and, although EXTREMELY sharp and serrated, I do not feel unsafe using it. This thing will pierce and cut through a grape or a tomato like nobody’s business! You can get such thin slices of cucumbers too. Tiny gherkins? Not a problem…however thin you want them! Hard carrots? Effortless!I have bought a few of these for home and several of as gifts too. (Recipients all share my love of this knife!)I use this knife every day…it’s always the FIRST one I reach for…still my best friend.(Shhhh….please don’t tell my husband).
