5.0 out of 5 stars Great knife January 22, 2008

By Pam

Color Name:Red|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is the best paring knife I have ever used. The blade is incredibly sharp and the handle is comfortable. And of course the color is fun and makes the knife easy the find in the drawer or the dish water. The case protects the blade in the drawer and makes it easy to take camping. The blade doesn't stick to anything, not even soft cheese. I have two myself and bought one as a gift. I would highly recommed this knife to everyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice Paring Knife - Recommended! June 22, 2009

By C. F. Hill HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER

Color Name:Green

The Kuhn Rikon Nonstick Paring Knife is a very good value for a quality knife. We own several of these knives in different colors for use at home and in our shop. The different colors allow us keep the ones we use to cut materials in our workshop from accidently being used for food products.

The blade is *VERY* sharp and holds it's edge very nicely. The nonstick coating on the blade is a real plus as it helps to keep the knife clean as well as to keep it moving through thicker items. The snug fitting platic sheath is a welcome addition to safely store or transport the knife.

My only complaint is the light feel of the plastic handle. It isn't flimsy exactly, just lacks heft. This might just be a personal prefference issue and it hasn't stopped me from buying more of them.

Overall this is a very good paring knife at a reasonable price. Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING April 21, 2009

By Barb Stenli

Color Name:Purple

When I first received the product it appeared by looks and touch to be dull BUT I bought it originally to match my kitchen. I was out of clean knives so decided to try and WOW or WOW what an amazing product. On the expensive side yes..............but as long as they continue to cut like they do now........they have become the favorite knives in the house by the entire family. It cuts hard sharp cheddar cheese like butter!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Definently recommend it for chefs June 14, 2007

By Brittney

Color Name:Red

I bought this knife at Williams- Sonoma retail store in Williamsburg, Virginia. It is an amazing paring knife and real sharp. I would definently suggest this to Culinary Students. My culinary program i'm enrolled in gave up "ok" paring knives. i decided that it was a time for an upgrade.

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect Paring Knife March 21, 2007

By Danette Mathews

Color Name:Red

I have to admit when I saw the knife in the womans magazine I ordered it because it comes in red.But once I received it I fell in love with it.It's sharp and just glides through potato skins like a hot knife through butter.The case with it makes it the perfect knife to take with my Girl Scouts on campouts; because we can pack it with the kitchen supplies without wrapping it in a towel or putting it into a special box to keep from cutting ourselves while digging through the box.If I had to list a bad quality I'd be out of luck.Because it's great and the price was even better than advertised in the ad of the magazine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sharp, but not 100% non-stick January 6, 2007

By B. Moffatt

Color Name:Blue|Amazon Verified Purchase

This has been one of the sharpest knives, short of my hunting knife, that I have used. One of the sharpest in my kitchen anyway. Its easy to use and clean, very sharp, and a handy size. It is not, however, totally non-stick. Things like garlic and seeds from various items will still cling to the blade. There is a handy sheath if you want drawer storage as well. In general, a very good knife.

Best little knife I've every used. Bought one originally while on vacation in Colorado and immediately ordered three more when I got home.
