Basic utility knife. Super sharp. Comfortable to hold as long as you don’t have the hand of a giant. Easy to clean lightly-textured plastic handle. Cheap. Basic. Would recommend.

Years ago bought this little knife and used it for almost everything. Then went on a picnic and thought I had lost it. Tried several look-alike paring knives and returned them all, discouraged. Viola! the old knife showed up and I could read the brand name. So also bought a back up.

Great little knife. Not very good looking but it works so well! I love it.

This is the greatest value for paring knife you will see. The edge is so sharp and the blade is so thin it makes slicing/peeling/paring super easy. Be very careful handling this little gem so you don’t get sliced yourself. A strop keeps the edge like a razor. It needs a sheath – don’t just chuck it into the knife drawer. A heftier handle would be nice for those with bigger hands.

I was a chef for 14 years, and I’ve done all the cooking at home for the last 30 years. I could have gone with the $95 WÜSTHOF or the $330 Henckel/Zwilling (my 40 year old set of chef’s knives are Henckel Four Stars) but this little beauty is $10 and could last a lifetime with proper care.
The only drawback is that if you prefer a lot of heft in your paring knife this might disappoint.

This is a great little paring knife, but beware it is sharp. All of our old kitchen knives are very dull. I warned my husband that I had bought new knives and they were supposed to be very sharp. He managed to cut himself washing it. It’s so sharp he didn’t even realize he had cut himself until he saw the blood. I have used it with no injuries and it does a great job in the kitchen.

Great size, cuts through many different vegies, and I just re-ordered another one to have as a spare. This is a great, sharp knife for the price.

Minus a star, for the pointless waste of plastic. Perfectly happy with the knives themselves.

I bought this second paring knife along with a Victorinox fibrox chef’s knife for my father. Nothing says endorsement like buying multiple version of a product 🙂
My own pair of Victorinox are the every-day workers in my household, and they’ve held up extremely well over the past 3 years. Frankly, they look like new, and I use them so often. The more I’ve gotten to know my knives, budget and expensive, the more I realized that a knife is the most important tool in a kitchen. I absolutely love the Victoronox Fibrox Chef’s knife. I wrote an exhaustive review on Amazon for it. I also own a $140 Wusthof and have another exhaustive review of it. Whether you’re a serious chef, slicing day in day out, or an average kitchen joe, you will benefit when your utilities cut like a dream.
•• Pedigree ••
Victorinox are the makers of the Swiss Army Knife. If you’ve ever owned one, you know they last damn near forever. Their paring knife is no exception. They also offer a lifetime warranty, which you’ll likely never need to cash in on because their knives are so well made; however, it’s always nice to have a little insurance.
•• Sharpness ••
Out of the package, it was sharp enough to take my nail off. Victorinox blades are a high quality carbon steel. They aren’t so full of carbon that they’re prone to rusting, and they aren’t pure stainless steel, so they keep a sharp edge. In my opinion, especially for the price, they’re the perfect knife for daily kitchen duty. I’ve never had a paring knife to rival it. It easily slices through everything I need it to. The other reviewers were right. In a dollar to performance ratio, these things are awesome.
•• Grip ••
Honestly, this is the Victorinox Fibrox line’s best attribute. Whether your hands are soaking wet or not, you will be able to maintain your grip. That’s why I love my Victorinox Chef’s knife for breaking down chickens. It doesn’t matter how slimy my hands get when peeling off skin, I can grip the knife with 100% firmness. There’s zero fear of slippage. The same can’t be said for my more expensive knives with smoother, glossy handles. That’s why I feel the Swiss line are so darn competitive in terms of multipurpose kitchen knives.
•• Price ••
I got this for $8.99 as an add-on item, but it’s typically around $11: a steal for this knife, honestly.
•• Conclusion ••
I couldn’t be happier with Victorinox, and having used a variety of their knives along with the competition, I’ll always recommend them. They’re not just a budget option. In my opinion, you get way more than you pay.
Buying an excellent knife is like going from a grainy black and white TV to high definition. It truly changes your perspective. Once you’ve seen it, you’d be crazy to go back.

This was a good, sharp knife that I was pleased with. The only problem was that it was a bit too sharp for one of my family members, who worried someone might get hurt with it when peeling fruit or veggies.
The knife is, however, fairly small as the blade length indicates. This proved its eventual undoing, for sadly the nice was buried in a pile of peelings, and when the plate of them were dumped in the recycling basket, the knife seems to have gone with them without anyone noticing.
However, for people who do not suffer from bad eyesight or luck, this is a good tool!
