The Shun Cutlery Classic Paring Knife with a 4 in. blade is a must-have for every kitchen. Much like the chef's knife, this knife is classic, all-purpose, and ready for every cutting task. This versatile knife gets its name from its main function—paring. The small size and added length gives you incredible control to peel and pit any kind of fruit or vegetable as well as great control over the tip of the blade. Used in your hand instead of in tandem with a cutting board, this capable knife is ready to prepare all kinds of small to medium-sized foods.
