Small Blade, Big Precision
A paring knife is the chef's knife's essential partner — small, nimble, and built for the precision work that a larger blade can't easily do: peeling apples, segmenting citrus, deveining shrimp, trimming fat, cutting small garnishes. At Tarzian West for Housewares, Brooklyn's neighborhood kitchen store for over 50 years, we carry one of the most varied paring knife selections in Brooklyn, spanning price points from practical to premium and styles from European forged to Japanese petty.
Wüsthof — The Wüsthof Classic Paring Knife is the most popular paring knife in the world — a 3.5" precision-forged blade with the triple-riveted handle that has become the standard by which all other paring knives are measured. The Wüsthof Classic Half Bolster Paring Knife 3.5" offers the same blade without a full bolster, making it easier to sharpen all the way to the heel.
