i bought it, because my girlfriend is scared about big knives. and its sharp, has a nice handling and so tiny….
…so i barley use it, by it looks nice and my girlfriend accept it. I always take my 12″ chef or 6,5″ santoku. depends what to cut.
so overall:
pro:
- nice knife
- sharp
- well balanced
- cheap
- good for tiny taks like… peeling a fruit? chooping a single cellery, removing fat from chicken breast…
cons:
- i really don’t use it thst often, so was a waste of money, buy a 6″ utility instead
four sars because it’s a nice knife!

My favorite. This paring knife is heftier than most, but well balanced and has a good feel in the hand. And it’s attractive in appearance! Made in Germany. I’m not sure what they mean by “twin”: it is a single knife with one single-edged blade (just like your average kitchen knife). Unlike many knives, however, the haft end of the blade thickens gradually and meets the end of the handle flush, rather than having the thin blade inserted into the handle. There must also be more of the blade steel that goes into the handle, since the balance point of the knife is about midlength. In general shape, it reminds me of a hunting knife my dad used to have.

very sharp, takes and holds an edge easily. Comfortable in the hand. Bought one 3 and one 4 star. Love them both. Will be back for more.

Purchase this to go with a bunch of other Four star knives I have in my block. It’s a decent knife but nothing spectacular. If I didn’t care for ascetics as much I’d buy the Victorinox knives as they tend to keep their sharpness. This knife has not, and within a few months of light use it lost it’s edge.
