Review on πŸ”ͺ Mercer Cutlery Renaissance 2.5-Inch Forged Peeling Knife in Sleek Black – A Must-Have Culinary Tool by Gary Parker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A knife I thought I didn't need

I've been cooking for a long time and I have a lot of knives. Chef's knife - use constantly. paring knife, not so much. But on a whim and based on reviews in magazines, I gave this one a try. This is one of those knives that "wish I'd bought it sooner". Not because I use paring knives often, but because this has proven to be my best paring knife. The tip of the beak in birds is of great importance. Pitted tomatoes - excellent. Removing rehydrated mushrooms is ideal. I have four other (very good) paring knives but this is what I grab. The beak is of great importance when trying to get into hard-to-reach places. Added bonus: It's instantly sharp and has survived trips to the dishwasher.
