Victorinox Swiss Classic 4-Inch Spear Tip, Serrated, Red Paring Knife

A sharp, serrated knife that is better than a straight blade knife for cutting tomato slices and other kitchen chores, ergonomic, lightweight and inexpensive. If I could have only one knife in the kitchen the Victorinox knife would be my choice. I even have given it as a stocking stuffer.

I like using this paring knife for cutting thick, or tough skin items such as Tomato's, Cucumbers, Oranges, Limes, Lemons and also for cutting grill cheese sandwiches. Lightweight, sharp - did I mention sharp?! I like it so much, I ordered the plain edge one for coring strawberry's, slicing cheese, slicing celery. Now, you might think that the serrated edge would be best for that, but nope. The celery has fibers running all the way through it and so the serrated edge catches just a bit on them making it slightly harder to slice through then using a straight edge paring knife. I ordered the four inch version(s) so it can double as a steak knife, however the 3.25 ones are excellent as well. They also come in a rounded edge if you want a knife that doubles as a cheese or butter spreader. No, I don't work for the company, I just like a well made, inexpensive (no, not cheap) functional knife.

My absolute favorite item in my kitchen. This knife is such a handy tool to have around for everyday cooking tasks. I try to keep 2 around at all times because we're always using them. Its something I recommend to anyone setting up their kitchen. You dont know until you have one around how much you'll use it, how sharp it really is, and what a durable piece you'll use for ages.

My go to knife! Of all the expensive knives I have, a tomatoes knife, cheese knife, chefs knife, etc. I use this for everything! This is the 3rd time I’ve ordered it! I have the straight edge too, but I grab this one 98% of the time! I use a bamboo cutting board which tends to dull knives fast. Not this one and the little sucker is sharp! Be careful the first month you was it, it’s good for cutting fingers too! Plus once a week I make my dogs food. Use it from everything from carrots to large chicken breast when I make her food and everything gets cut on bamboo boards! It’s the perfect weight and size! Can’t say enough good things about it! After I bought my first one, I cleaned out my knife drawer and got rid of all the knives I seldom used!!

These are the best knives!My first one was a gift and I have since gifted these to all my family and extended family 😀Everybody just love them. It’s best to have a bright colored knife. It is easier to find. Just a tip!

I’ve used the same old knives for decades. What a pleasure to use one that is sharp and comfortable to hold. I bought a second one!

More and more I like a serrated paring knife. This works well.

These little knives are super sharp. I have a set of very expensive knives and now I basically only use these. The peelers are my favorite as well. I also just throw them in the dishwasher.
