Made using a very pure Swedish high carbon tool steel, each knife in the Misono Swedish Steel Series is very carefully hand-forged to create a masterpiece of "Hagane Hocho" that features excellent edge sharpness, very good edge retention and is easy to re-sharpen (HRc. 60).
Because Misono knives look like many other classic Western Chef’s knives, it often difficult for inexperienced users to discern the quality of their blades. To help us express the quality of Misono’s knives to our customers, we thought the opinion of a professional who has over half a century of experience in the knife industry and decades of experience in using and sharpening many different kinds of knife. He clearly stated that in his, unbiased opinion, Misosno’s Swedish Steel Series knives are the best carbon steel knives currently being made in Japan.
This knife feature full tang construction, water-resistant black pakkawood (Resin impregnated wood composite) handle scales and steel bolsters for extra durability and improved blade balance.
The Paring knife is useful for a variety of commonplace kitchen tasks, but it is primarily used for peeling and accurately shaping fruits and vegetables. Paring knives are particularly useful when cutting small items held in the hand, which makes them indispensable in the kitchen and an ideal companion for Gyuto knives.
The blade steel and wooden handle are both of high quality. It was sharp right out of the box and remains sharp for a long time with excellent sharpening ability
What a wonderful paring knife. Perfect size the Yo’ style handle is good fit in my hand giving the knife good balance and control. I never thought anything could beat out my Zwilling Ikon 3.1" paring knife this Misono paring knife does just that.
Feels great in the hand, easy to sharpen, stays sharp for a long time. It's carbon steel, so you must treat it right, but if you're buying a carbon steel knife you know that already. I've had it a year now and will be buying more of the same brand.
I bought this paring knife for my bar, for cutting lemon twists. It didn’t disappoint. The sharpness is unparalleled, giving me great control over thickness and width of the lemon twist. I liked the knife so much it is doing double duty at breakfast, trimming vegetables. The amount of control the knife gives is fantastic.
Great for the price and it’s easy to sharpen. If you’re not familiar with high carbon steel.. it rusts and leaves a patina quickly. A rust stone easily fixes this.
