Overview
A fully forged German stainless steel blade runs seamlessly into the handle on this Henckels Classic Precision paring knife. The rounded spine and curved triple-rivet POM handle are meant to ease long cutting sessions.
The reason to buy it is a forged paring knife that can go in the dishwasher, made in Spain from German stainless steel. The limitation is the missing edge angle and hardness data.
Who it's for
Home cooks who want a forged paring knife that tolerates the dishwasher will like the care routine. Buyers who prefer a natural handle, or who compare steel hardness and edge angle, should look at other knives.
