Paring Knife

Traditionally, this utensil is a small knife with a straight, sharp blade that is generally three to five inches long and rounded on the cutting side. It is easy to handle and works well for peeling and coring foods or mincing and cutting small items. Working with small bits of food or small ingredients, such as shallots, garlic or fresh herbs can easily be accomplished with this knife.

Another type of paring knife known as a "bird's beak" or a "tournée" knife is also available that is used for many of the same tasks as the traditional paring knife. The bird's beak knife has a shorter blade, typically 2 to 3 inches in length, that is curved upward on both the cutting edge and the top edge. It is a knife that is commonly used to make a tournée cut in vegetables such as carrots, potatoes or sqaush. This cut is also referred to as a tourne or tourné cut.




A serrated blade has a cutting edge. By having less contact area than a smooth blade, the applied pressure at each point of contact is relatively greater and the points of contact are at a sharper angle to the material being cut. This causes a cutting action that involves many small splits in the surface of the material being cut, which cumulatively serve to cut the material along the line of the blade. knife that has a carved or hollowed out blade edge for use in cutting foods that are firm on the outside yet soft inside

Cuts made with a serrated blade are typically less smooth and precise than cuts made with a smooth blade. Serrated blades can be more difficult to sharpen using a whetstone or rotary sharpener than a non-serrated, however, they can be easily sharpened with a diamond. Serrated blades tend to stay sharper longer than a similar straight edged blade. A serrated blade has a faster cut but a plain edge has a cleaner cut. Some prefer a serrated blade on a pocket knife
