Wusthof Classic IKON Paring Knife, 3.5-inch (9 cm) - 4086-9 Naniwa Chosera Stones with all the features ofThe perfect companion to a Santoku or Chef's knife! The Wsthof Classic IKON paring Knife, 9cm (3. 5"), is the most versatile of all parers: for mincing shallots, onions and herbs as well as cleaning and cutting vegetables all easily accomplished with the comfortable grip and razor sharp hardened stainless steel edge. This is also my favourite paring knife shape I like this "spear point" shape more than the "bird's beak" or straight edge "sheep's foot"
