Laser Precision for Your Most Delicate Prep. The 3.5" Paring Knife is an indispensable kitchen staple engineered for maximum control, meticulous detail work, and delicate off-the-board tasks. Taking months of rigorous development to perfect, this nimble blade fuses our modern, chef-driven style with the elite traditions of traditional bladesmithing to completely exceed the demands of busy commercial lines and passionate home kitchens alike.

 

At 3.5 inches, this agile knife acts as a seamless extension of your hand, providing laser-like precision for creating intricate garnishes, peeling fruits and vegetables, coring tomatoes, and trimming proteins. While smaller in stature, it features the exact same uncompromising, hand-forged quality and razor-sharp edge geometry as our flagship chef's knives, giving you the versatility and clearance to handle medium-sized utility tasks on the cutting board with ease.

 

Each blade is meticulously hand-forged using traditional San Mai construction, featuring a rock-hard core of premium Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel. This elite core ensures a wicked, enduring edge that easily outlasts mass-produced, stamped factory brands. The knife is beautifully finished with our signature rustic Kurouchi (blacksmith) finish, providing a striking aesthetic and a textured surface that naturally aids in food release.

 

Key Features:

Surgical Precision and Control

The 3.5" blade profile is perfectly optimized for maximum agility, making light work of peeling, scoring, hulling, and intricate decorative cuts where a larger chef's knife feels too cumbersome.

 

Premium Japanese High Carbon Core

Hand-forged to deliver a terrifyingly sharp edge straight out of the box. This high-grade steel offers exceptional wear resistance and a fine, resilient tip that is incredibly rewarding to maintain and sharpen on a whetstone.

 

Ergonomic Octagonal 'Wa' Handle

Experience seamless balance and total control. The traditional octagonal Rosewood handle provides a supreme, slip-resistant grip that reduces hand fatigue during intense prep sessions. Completely ambidextrous for both left- and right-handed culinary artists.

 

Sustainable Artisan Accents

True to elite bladesmithing traditions, our paring knife features a genuine Ox horn ferrule, sustainably sourced from independent local farmers near our forge. Bound with a high-strength polymer, it ensures a lifetime of handle structural integrity under demanding kitchen conditions.

 

The Forge To Table Advantage

Unlike mass-produced, factory-stamped commercial cutlery, every single Forge To Table blade is hand-forged in Yangjiang City by third-generation master blacksmith Alex Zheng and his team. Combining industrial design precision with 5 years of elite traditional apprenticeship in Seki, Japan, we deliver the unmatched performance of artisan blades at an approachable price point—bringing genuine culinary heritage straight to your prep station.
