Victorinox, Blac 3.25 Inch Swiss Classic Paring Knife with Serrated Edge, Spear Point, Black, 3.25"

Wirecutter

Our favorite paring knife is from Victorinox. In our testing it performed as well as those five times more expensive. It’s cheap enough that you won’t cry if you lose it.

After doing two rounds of testing on 20 different knives, we still like this inexpensive little paring knife.

r/chefknives

 I used the serrated for tomatoes, bread etc and the thick for avocados and sturdier cutting needs... this one I use for strawberries, mushrooms, etc

 At this price you cannot go wrong and will have a better knife than many 3 times the price.

Wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do, given it has a thin blade.

* A beater Sabbatier that I had since I was a student and takes care of rougher tasks like breaking down seafood. I learned to sharpen using this as I was a home cook with mostly crap knives and didn't want to start out on my J knives. Still sees a lot of use.

Next we have a couple of palette knives - the larger is PME - picked it up because it was cheap and I don't use it that frequently. The smaller one is Ateco and that one sees a lot of use for non baking tasks - really good for spreading mayo and pastes.

Next we have a [Tanaka Ginsan 150mm]([URL REMOVED] and no I don't actually cut onions as pictured (if you follow the link) - that was a quick and dirty test. I love how nimble this one handles and although I favour wa handles by now, it still fits my pinch grip perfectly and is great for more delicate tasks.

This entire series is awesome ( I own the boning and chef knife) and is designed to keep up with wusthof, and it competes well. The paring knife however did not come razor sharp like the other knives did, took some work on my stones but I was able to get it there.

Weakest Link, but good

I'd personally say Victorinox is where you get the highest price to quality ratio. It's a very good quality knife, for not a lot of money. There's nothing quite as good below that price point. And above that price the quality can definitely improve, but you'll get diminishing returns with each price bump

I was just wondering if you have to spend a lot of money on a good kitchen knife or any knife will do as long as you keep sharpening it? which is the best metal?

How much to spend on a kitchen knife

 Then a couple of limes and knife worked well on this task. The handle is harder than I expected but it is non-slip. I think this will hold up over time. And at $6

It’s a good little knife. First time I tried it out I diced an onion- easy peasey. Then a couple of limes and knife worked well on this task. The handle is harder than I expected but it is non-slip

Good utility/paring knife. Great price.

Why We Love the Victorinox Paring Knife

The Kyocera revolution series 2-Piece gift set includes a 5. 5-Inch Santoku knife and a 3-Inch Paring knife; essential tools for the home cook looking to prepare fresh meals with ease. From Kyocera's most popular line of advanced ceramic knives, designed with a comfortable, ergonomic handle for precise control. The ceramic blades are made from a proprietary zirconia material produced in Japan and stays razor sharp at least 10 times longer than traditional knives, making them ideal for everyday use. The perfect choice for slicing fruits, vegetables and boneless meats. Not intended for frozen or hard foods..

TechGearLab

The Kyocera Advanced Ceramic is a super sharp santoku knife with a ceramic blade. It excels pretty uniformly for delicate herbs, or on firmer veggies, like carrots. Its small size makes it a good option for people with small hands. It's a nimble knife that allows for precise cuts. It could even be a great beginner knife for children looking to improve their skills in the kitchen. It is comfortable to hold, its plastic handle is durable, and the whole thing is easy to wash. 
Like other short blades, this model doesn't stand up quite as well to hefty root vegetables or produce with thick skin. It is also very lightweight, which could be a plus for some, but also means that it doesn't carry the heft you need for larger chopping jobs. Having said that, we love this knife and recommend it highly.

The most expensive part of this kit broke very easily and splintered into a brick of cheese I was cutting. If you are a sushi chef, then these knifes may be beyond great for you, but if you intend on cutting thick meat, cheese, or anything else with the larger blade of the set that is considered somewhat difficult to cut, or thick, do not expect the knife to last long and be extremely cognizant of small peace’s of the ceramic knife breaking in your food. A very, Very real concern and warning of caution. The big knife is way to thin and could shatter into your food

 It almost happened to me but I caught it. I have cheaper ceramic knives that are tougher, more rugged, and Cheaper (but much THICKER than these knifes which leads to the forever life span ceramics advertise). No body wants to find a razor blade in their apple, and I am only being brutally honest because the larger thin blade could give you that result if you are not always very cognizant of the condition of your blade. Always look at the edge and make sure no little peace splintered off

Always look at the edge and make sure no little peace splintered off. Be cautious and know what your buying, a very, very thin blade. It’s so thin it’s translucent

 Always be cautious and cognizant when using ceramic blades of any kind, but this one takes the dangerous cake. Sorry guys.. :( have to be brutally honest

Very important to know what you are buying here

 I've used the pairing knife to pit cherries (not prying! just slicing around the pit) and there is no hint of staining on the blade. And anyone who worked with a lot of fruits and vegetables knows that cherries are one of the most staining fruits around.  Overall I think anyone buying this set needs to be aware that a ceramic blade is a specialized tool for a specific task. It is a great addition to the toolkit if you are slicing a lot of fruits and vegetables and don't want to have to hone your blades after every few uses

 I think if the handle it not providing enough grip then you are trying to cut something you should not be cutting with this blade.  For people who have said the blade isn't sharp I think they may have gotten a badly honed blade. As I examined the edge very closely I noted that the way it was sharpened suggests to me that it was done by hand. What I mean is that the honed part did not have a uniform thickness across the entire knife blade

  First, anyone buying this set needs to understand that material physics go like this, the harder something is the more brittle it is. Ceramic blades are extremely hard and thus must be extremely brittle. So yes, you have to be careful with this set but that is not Kyocera's fault it is just the way that materials work. For something to be both very hard and not brittle it would be Adamantium and that only exists in comic books

 I bought a new set rather than use a chipped blade because I'm afraid I might chip off another piece now that the blade isn't 100% straight I may not notice and could end up with a chip in my food (yikes). It was really my own fault, I dropped a pretty heavy glass bottle on it. Obviously you can't chip a metal blade so that is a drawback of ceramic. However, this blade has remained razor sharp through 3 years of fairly heavy use

Great for juicing

 I took it as a good sign and grabbed a set when it was on sale. As warned, I cut myself the third time using it, but they're so sharp that makes cutting hard vegetables a snap - I can't even go back to my old knives anymore (they've been put to hibernate) Now, they do stain, especially after I cut carrots, the white blade turns a little orange despite prompt washing, but since they make my life so much easier, a little stain is really no big deal. The real problem is, because it's ceramic, it's very fragile. When I goofed and left the Santoku on the rack, it slid into the sink and you guess it, it chipped, right in the middle of the blade

I have been using some dull knives for a long time and decided to upgrade. When I read the reviews, some of them did warn that the only problem with these knives is they are sharp.

 But I'm sure it will still work better than my old knives, so I probably will come back for another set in the future. If you always get frustrated cutting, these knives will set you free!

So sharp but so fragile

 I understand that there are issues with installing handles on ceramic blades, but there must be a better material. You can feel the raised seam that runs down the center of the handles, they are a little slick when wet, and they otherwise look and feel low grade. I would gladly pay more for the same blades with upgraded handles.

 I do suspect that a fall onto a tile floor would not end well for the blades. Unfortunately, the molded plastic handles feel cheap and are not all that comfortable.
