This paring knife’s 3-1/2-inch center-tip blade peels and cuts vegetables and fruits in a jiffy. One of Messermeister’s top-of-the-line Elite knives, which are distinguished from the company’s first-rate San Moritz knives by a three-step hand sharpening process blades undergo and classic three-rivet, full-tang, seamless polymer handles, the knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel. The blade has a shortened bolster so it’s sharp from tip to heel and a cook’s forefinger rests comfortably on it. Made in Germany, the knife comes in a padded gift box. To keep the blade sharp, it’s best to hand wash this knife in soapy water. –Fred Brack
