This Full Tang Paring knife is a wonderfully versatile tool for your kitchen. Starting off with the curved blade for peeling fruits but also works very well for slicing vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. The knife features 73 individual layers of steel consisting of a centralized core with two protective layers on the outside.

The blade core is made of a 14Cr14MoVNb which mostly features Carbon and Chromium in the mix. This is offset by lower levels of Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Niobium (an alternative to Titanium). This combination is used to ensure that the edge of the blade is as sharp and durable as possible by creating stronger carbides in the steel without using too much of the free Chromium.

The excess Chromium combined with the outer stainless steel layers helps protect the blade from corrosion and rust. This makes it easier to use across a wide variety of foods without the blade oxidizing the moment you put it down. You will still need to wash and dry the blade, but it won’t need to happen as quickly as some other blades with a heavy carbon content.

The inner and outer blade sections are heat treated up to 64 HRC to ensure that the edge is retained. The early to mid-60s on the HRC scale are perfect for razor sharp edges while maintaining a lower risk of chipping.

The knife blade features a 50° curved point. This angle and curve helps ensure the knife slices better. It also helps maximize the width of the peel you are able to peel off per revolution.

The knife is very durable, featuring a full tang blade. This adds additional support for the handle and allows the blade and handle section to be one solid piece of metal. The Olive wood is meticulously paired with the tang to keep the tang out of sight. This brings elegance to the handle’s performance.

The entire knife is dehorned for comfort, preventing you from getting snagged on sharp edges and making it easier to use for long periods of time. The 4" blade is beautifully adorned with a Raindrop Damascus Pattern.

This style of paring Knife with its curved blade is more specialized than your regular paring knife, but for some uses it's amazing and a lot of fun to use.
