Shun Sora Paring Knife 3.5 inch Stainless Steel Blade Handcrafted in Japan

The paring knife gets its name from its main function—removing or “paring” away things like peels or pits from fruits and vegetables. It is ideal for peeling coring trimming decorating and other detail work. Its small size gives you complete control over the tip and edge of the blade. Generally you will use this knife in your hand rather than against a cutting board though paring knives can also be used for cutting small foods such as garlic cloves or ginger. Shun Sora provides handcrafted Japanese quality at an amazing price.
