J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife Review

J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First, I preface my review by stating I am not a professional chef, nor am I a very experienced cook, but in fact I am a novice who enjoys learning to cook. My parents have the entire set of the same Henckels International Classic set and thus this is the only set I had ever really used for most of my short cooking life. I presumed all knives were like this and this is the norm. Well, I recently moved and also recently had been cooking at friends and family's houses who don't have this set of knives...well let me just say, I now know the importance of a good set of knives. The knives cut cleanly and easily, leaving clumsy people like myself less opportunity to injure themselves. So, one of my first purchases in my own place was of course the same set of Henkels International Classic knives that I had "grown up on." (The store near me didn't have a complete set, so I bought this little paring knife essentially to complete the set.)
I should also say that in choosing a set of knives, I called the Henkels company to ask about the difference between this set and the Henkel Pro or 4 star. I was told that the difference is in the weight and that this set is a little lighter than the pro and also that this set is designed in Germany but built in Spain. The staff was very friendly and told me honestly that unless I was a professional chef or professional cook that I really did not need to spend almost double the money on the pro and that the international set would be quite sufficient and perhaps even more appropriate.
I would recommend this set and this company to anyone and everyone especially the novice...because good and safe cooking starts with a good set of knives.
BTW I don't compliment companies easily.

This knife is sold a steak knife. I use it as a paring knife. The serrated edge will never dull, and it will cut most vegetable, fruits with ease. I purchased another with my next order.

Rada Cutlery Granny Paring Knife, Made in USA, Aluminum Handle (R100) Review

Rada Cutlery Granny Paring Knife, Made in USA, Aluminum Handle (R100)

I started buying Rada cutlery at one of the big Home & Garden Shows because I was tired of cheap knives and of peelers that just didn't work. This knife is simply the best for the price - you don't need to spend a fortune on the German brands - this U.S. made knife is every bit as good at a fraction of the price. It is fantastic for doing apples and other fruits.
The knife stays extremely sharp - I've nicked myself a number of times when I got too close to what I was cutting. You can keep the blade super sharp by using the Rada sharpner, so there's no need to replace this knife ever.
The only drawback, if you are into appearances, is that the handle will discolor if it is not dried after washing or if you allow it to sit in water. Also, these knives should not be put in the dishwasher if you care about appearance - the handle will get darkened and somewhat pitted.

I LOVE these knives. I have worked with a variety of "high-end" knives over the years, but keep coming back to Rada knives. They are absolute workhorses in the kitchen. I have not found any German product (F.Dick, Henkels) that hold an edge as well as these knives. The price cannot be beat. These knives are an exceptional product for an amazing price. The fact that they are made in America just makes them all the more attractive. I recommend these knives to everyone I know who spends any time at all in the kitchen.
