A paring knife is the second-most important knife to have in the kitchen. (The first is a chef's knife!) The WÜSTHOF Gourmet 3" Flat Cut Paring Knife's small, narrow blade is easy to handle, making it the perfect knife to trim, slice, and peel small produce such as herbs, strawberries, and garlic cloves. The flat edge provides more contact with the cutting board, which allows for precise, agile control.

At a slightly lower price point than the Classic series, these knives are a wonderful start to your first knife collection.
