4 Inch Classic Paring Knife, German Steel Small Kitchen Knife | Razor Sharp Utility Prep Knife for Precision Peeling & Detail Cutting, Slicing & Dicing Fruits & Veggies, Ergonomic Full Tang

I would order this knife again, it's very sharp, and the length is perfect for my use. Some have said the handle is a little heavy but I haven't found that to be any kind of problem for balance or anything else once I start using it.

Lovely knife, sharp and a very nice design

Oaksware knives are the best value I have found. High quality, very comfortable handles and hold their sharp edge, I have repurchased twice.

I bought these to replace a set of cheap, smaller pairing knives with fragile plastic handles which we wore out using them for everything - streak knives, pairing knives, dinner knives, cutting up raw chicken and raw vegetables, etc. These are extremely sharp and sturdy, and the craftsmanship is excellent. The hilt feels very good and solid in the hands. The drawback that I was not expecting but would have realized if I had paid more attention is that the hilt is very heavy. Almost too heavy, and with the light, thin, blade it means they are not well balanced. They still work well, especially for my bigger hands, but they can be a bit much for my wife's smaller hands. For the price, they are an excellent buy.

Very nice knife sharp ,and holds an edge nicely

I frankly wasn't prepared for how beautiful this knife is; it's a pleasure to hold & use. I use it mainly to cut frozen string beans to put in soup. I tend to keep my knives dull because I'm clumsy & tend to cut myself so a dull knife does less harm to me. The problem with that theory is, dull knives either don't cut frozen string beans at all or, when I finally do succeed in cutting through the frozen string bean (as I apply more & more forearm & wrist strength) a suddenly severed section of string bean will oftentimes go shooting off the plate at high speed to either disappear entirely from this universe (so far as I can tell) or end up on the floor at least five feet away. So, something sharp and heavy seemed to be the answer. When I went to one good housewares store, all the knives had thin plastic handles with thin blades sharp as razors & I could see in my mind's eye that there would be blood, my very own, soon to be seen amongst the string beans if I bought one of those deadly weapons lying in wait on the counter of that store. This knife is 1. heavy 2. sharp but 3. the blade is thick- not a razor. It's a pleasure to use, because it's heavy & sharp I don't press down hardly at all & I don't have to saw & I also haven't bled once. Pieces of severed string beans are no longer flying out of the universe from my kitchen nor littering the floor. It also cuts meat well & tomatoes too. It's a full tang knife; it's a pleasure to use & to look at too as it sits there quietly beautiful.

Good every day paring knife

I love these knives! Sharp, nice weight, perfect size, and zero rust still. I bought them little over a year ago and I think they're great...with one major exception. The handle is almost completely gone. It has been flaking off piece at a time for about 4 months now. I still use them because I prefer them for all my food prep. Unfortunately I will not order them again because of this problem.

el cuchillo está hermoso y se ve muy resistente, bien hecho, pero el filo no es lo que dice en la descripción. Apenas llevo un día de uso y para cortar un jitomate tuve que encajar la punta porque no cortaba.
