Victorinox 4-Inch Swiss Classic Red Paring Knife

The 4" Swiss Classic Paring Knife with Spear Point, crafted by Victorinox Swiss Army, is every chef's go-to tool for precision and accuracy. This versatile knife is designed to excel at a wide array of tasks, from slicing and dicing to peeling and garnishing, allowing you to create every meal with the precision of a work of art.

The tapered knife edge, ground in two directions, holds a sharp edge for longer, ensuring maximum cutting performance and durability. With its slightly curved blade and pointed tip, the 4" paring knife resembles a chef's knife but in a fraction of the size, making it perfect for small, intricate cuts where control is essential.

The increased blade length, slightly longer than the standard 3 1/4" parer, offers additional strength when slicing and dicing fruits and vegetables. The pointed tip allows you to make precise cuts or check the tenderness of meat and produce. The enhanced maneuverability and dexterity of this nimble knife provide endless opportunities for its use.

Victorinox Swiss Army has carefully selected the best attributes from their rich commercial heritage and modified them to suit the home chef. The Victorinox Swiss Classic collection features a contemporary, contoured nylon handle inspired by the company's patented Fibrox Pro line. Designed to minimize wrist tension while providing a secure grip, the handle is both lightweight and durable, making these knives feel like an extension of your hand.

Whether you're a seasoned or novice home chef, Victorinox Swiss Army offers the right tools, the know-how, and, most importantly, the confidence to achieve your culinary aspirations. Expertly crafted in Switzerland since 1884, these knives come with a lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship.

Victorinox's history and heritage in the cutlery industry are deeply rooted. In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland, where he and the cutlers' union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. It is from these humble beginnings that the worldwide icon of Victorinox Swiss Army was born.

To ensure the longevity of your 4" Swiss Classic Paring Knife, Victorinox recommends hand-washing the knife and honing it regularly with a honing steel. While the knife is dishwasher safe, hand-washing is preferred to prevent the knives from colliding and dulling the edge. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knife sharper and performing at its best, but if the knife becomes dull, pitted, or has visible nicks on the cutting edge, it will need to be sharpened using a Swiss Sharp Handheld Sharpener or taken to a professional for re-sharpening.
