HENCKELS Modernist 4-inch Paring Knife, Razor-Sharp German Engineered Informed by 100+ Years of Mastery, Gray

Why did you pick this product vs others?: We purchased this knife as a replacement for a knife set that we currently own. These knives are great - sharp, easy to handle, feel and look great. No issues with cutting ability. Definitely high quality and would recommend them.

We had bought the set of Henckels knives and loved them all. The handles are very comfortable and have a nice weight fit to them. The blades are quite sharp, so cutting is effortless, even after about a year of daily use. They wash easily, sop we don't put them in the dishwasher. We have seen no staining or rusting so far. Unfortunately, while using one of the paring knives to separate some frozen sausages, I broke off about 1 in. of the blade. Yes,, I know this is a stupid thing to do, but I was in a hurry, and ... I was very happy to find that the paring knives are a stock item, and ordered two (in case I were to forget my lesson someday). They are a perfect match to the rest of the set. I strongly recommend the full set and especially the ability to replace or extend them.

Replaced the paring knife from my knife Block, after the Tip broke, with this one. Same Brand, and color scheme.

This knife is sharp and the size and handle style are perfect for me.

Came very sharp but she's had rust skies after a few months. We do our then in the dishwasher so take that with a grain on salt but still disappointing. Also, the handle feels like oxidized aluminum which I can't stand the feel of, if you know you know, otherwise it's probably not an issue for you.

Works perfect

I bought this knife because I had a Henkel knife I have used for many years; recently although the knife still cut very well, the handle began to disintegrate. I bought the knife that was the same size and description as mine. It will not cut! We tried to sharpen it several times but nothing works! I have put duct tape around the handle of my old knife and will use it until I find a knife that cuts! So disappointed. Update: I contacted the company (after returning the knife and receiving my refund from Amazon) and the company was so gracious and sent me a lovely SHARP knife which I am using gratefully! Problem resolved

Good

My pairing knives for my 20 piece set went missing. I really wanted to replace them because it’s such a great set. So I bought the knife. I’m so glad to have it. It’s super sharp, easy to use and looks wonderful.

Accidentally threw out my original knife and was happy to find the identical replacement on amazon. Its good quality, does not rust and is very sharp.

So sturdy and sharp!

Great quality

Perfect size and weight. Keeps sharp.
