Wüsthof Classic 3.5-inch Paring Knife

Wüsthof Classic 3.5-inch Paring Knife

A paring knife handles the small, close work a chef’s knife is too large for, and the Wüsthof Classic 3.5-inch is the size we reach for first. Its narrow, pointed blade hulls strawberries, trims the root end of a shallot, deveins shrimp and cuts the core from a halved apple.

Much of that work happens in the hand, off the board, so control matters more than length here. The short blade keeps the tip close to your fingers. Its three-rivet handle gives a secure hold when your hands are wet from washing produce. On the board, the tip scores the skin of a duck breast or a loaf of bread before baking.

For a slightly longer blade that also slices small fruit on the board, see the Classic 4-inch paring knife. For peeling round fruit and shaping garnishes, the curved Classic peeling knife is the better tool. The Classic Ikon 3.5-inch puts this blade on Ikon’s rounded handle, and our kitchen knife shapes guide compares the paring styles.

Care

Wash by hand in warm, soapy water right after use and dry it immediately. Do not put the knife in the dishwasher or leave it soaking. Hone it regularly on a steel and sharpen it when honing no longer restores the edge. Cut on wood or plastic boards, never on glass, stone or metal.
