The Versatile Middle Ground

The utility knife fills the gap between a paring knife and a chef's knife — longer than a paring knife for more reach and control, shorter and more maneuverable than an 8" chef's knife for precision tasks. It's the blade for slicing sandwiches, trimming chicken breasts, halving small squash, and any job that feels too big for a paring knife and too small for a full chef's knife.

At Tarzian West for Housewares, Brooklyn's neighborhood kitchen store for over 50 years, our utility knife selection covers every style from German forged to Japanese petty knives.
