HOSHANHO 3.75 inch Paring Knife, Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel Small Kitchen Knives, Ultra Sharp Fruit Knife with Ergonomic Pakkawood Handle

Best knife set I have ever owned, super sharp and cuts food flawlessly. Just hand wash and dry them immediately and they won’t rust. Very good quality and they look beautiful. What a difference from the other knife sets I have owned.

Very sharp and great price

A good choice. The knife has an excellent handle and is very sharp. It feels solid; the only negative is that you have to be a little careful with the sharp edge near the handle.

I have most of this line of knives. I buy them because they are great quality, keep their edge and they seem to have the most ergonomically designed handle. The quality is over the top. I give them as presents every once in a while. I recommend every kitchen should be stocked with these.

The great quality of the steel and handle do not make this a great paring knife. I always hesitate in choosing it over my other paring knife when about to peel fruit or vegetable. It does not feel balanced for use as a paring knife, and at first, my hand automatically moved to hold the knife like my Oshanho Japanese chef's knife and a Chinese chef's knife, with index finger and thumb at the back edge of the blade. However, by ignoring my other paring knife, this became familiar, and my hand found a comfortable hold just ahead of the back edge of the blade. If appearance is most important, I have to say that it does look good next to my chef's knife of the same series. I had given this 3 stars, but after some familiarity, and changed hold, it became useful and efficient for most paring. I can even remove potato eyes with it, by sliding my hold to near the tip.

High quality, subtle dark wood grain, nice and heavy round handle, engraved blade. Ergonomic. Great value!

Quick shipping and quality knives at a great price. I have been looking for a set like this for a year!

Very sharp and well balanced set, only complaint I have is that the end of the blade near the handle is unnecessarily pointy and sharp. I cut my hands twice while taking the knife off the magnetic holder, that part of the blade does not need to be that pointy and sharp in my opinion.
