Wusthof Classic Paring Knife, 4-inch (10 cm) - 4066-10 Naniwa Traditional Stones good looks

good looks

but few can yield a mirror polish edge like this Naniwa Super Stone 12k can

And as you use the stone it's natural that it will dish (become concave) and so will need flattening

and it makes a cool gift because it's unusual and yet super useful

but like I said

Wusthof Classic Paring Knife, 4-inch (10 cm) - 4066-10 Naniwa Traditional Stones good looksIdeal companion to a Chef's knife. A very useful all around paring knife. Slightly larger than the usual 9cm paring knife found in most collections, so it's good for someone looking for a paring knife closer to a utility knife in size and handling. This makes a great addition to a growing and versatile knife collection. A knife like this one quickly becomes a favourite "go to" knife for those many everyday tasks where a small paring knife is too small
