J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife Review
J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife Feature
- 4-inch paring knife, great for peeling, cutting, and shaping fruits and vegetables

Classically shaped (center-tip style, with curved back and edge), this knife comes in handy at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In the afternoons, when no one is looking, it'll slice open a package. Henckels' International Classic is a moderately priced cutlery line made in countries other than the company's home of Germany. The steel is of lesser quality than that used in its premier lines. Also, the handles are narrower and shallower--which the small-handed might appreciate. While this parer is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended.
