5.0 out of 5 stars Great little knives
When I buy a paring knife, what is most important to me, is sharpeness and blade shape. These 3 little knives were excellent in this category. They are extra sharp blades and the shape of them is perfect for quick paring, be it, potato skins or chicken.

No, these blades have no heft and the blades are quite thin, but this is not what I look for in a paring...

2.0 out of 5 stars Might be better to buy one pretty good paring knife, instead
It's hard to turn down anything with the name "Wusthøf" when it looks like a bargain -- at least, it's hard for me. And the idea of three speciality paring knives certainly appealed.

It's hard to turn down anything with the name "Wusthøf" when it looks like a bargain -- at least, it's hard for me. And the idea of three speciality paring knives certainly appealed. Nevertheless, the low price caused me to lower expectations to a level that I thought would be realistic. I didn't lower them enough.

The knives have no heft at all. The blades seem terribly flimsy. Grasping the light plastic handles provides no sense of control. These aren't impossible to use; i simply make a point of using almost anything else.

Thinking it over, I probably knew that this deal sounded too good to be true, even with the Wusthøf name on the package. Instead of buying three mediocre to poor knives at this price, it would be better to put the money towards a single pretty good paring knife.

Also when you get them on sale like I did, they are even more of a joy.
