This Paring knife combines function and artistry with a Japanese-themed blade style. Each XINZUO blade features three layers of steel in each knife.
These layers consist of two outer layers made of SuS410 Stainless Damascus Steel and a single inner core made of 10Cr15CoMoV Steel. This allows different properties to be combined without compromising the steel used for each layer.
The 10Cr15CoMoV Steel used in the core provides a sharp primary cutting edge. Heat-treated to 60–62 HRC on the Rockwell scale, it offers excellent edge retention while avoiding excessive brittleness—ideal for fine, controlled cuts.
The outer SuS410 Stainless Damascus Steel serves as an anti-corrosion layer. It supports a beautiful stonewashed finish with a hammered look and a traditional hamon-style line, adding visual character without affecting the cutting performance.
The handle features a Black Buffalo Horn section that leads into a rich Red Wood, echoing the blade’s transition from bright edge to stonewashed pattern for a cohesive, premium look.
Shaped after traditional Japanese profiles, the ergonomic handle promotes long-term comfort and secure grip for safer, more precise handling.
The 4-inch Paring knife shines for peeling, trimming, and shaping produce; hulling berries; deveining shrimp; removing seeds and ribs from peppers; segmenting citrus; scoring dough; and precise tip work like coring or removing eyes from potatoes. Its compact length offers superb in-hand control and accuracy for the most detailed kitchen tasks.
