The biggest knife in your kit gets the glory. The smallest one does the closest work. The Feather Forge 3.5" Paring Knife is built for everything that happens off the cutting board and in your hands: peeling fruit, hulling strawberries, coring tomatoes, deveining shrimp, and every fine cut where control matters more than power.Like every blade in the series, it is forged from 73 layers of feather Damascus steel around a Japanese AUS-10 core, hardened to 60±2 HRC, so it takes a razor edge and keeps it. At 2.0mm thin and just 112 grams, it moves like an extension of your fingers, and the olive wood handle with G10 spacer gives it the same balance and presence as its bigger siblings. Small blade, full Feather Forge.
