A Fruit Knife by Any Other Name
This Japanese fruit knife is spot on. Small straight blade, slightly angled up keeps the blade in contact with the sphere of an apple. It gives you control and maximum efficiency - more peel per stroke. And because it is part of the Pro line, this knife features the angles bolster giving you comfort and control as you peel. The tip perfectly cores or a tomato or hulls a strawberry. It's also useful for scoring breads and puff pastry, peel the fibrous layers off the stems of asparagus and artichokes.

This is a great knife, mini Asian knife!
I'm a fan of this Pro 3" kudamono paring. I do used this more than any paring knife for small food, fruits, butter, and meat. Love the shape, great cutting edge, beautiful curve handle pinch grip. Cutting, slicing and peeling with this vegetable knife is exceptional.

Great paring knife
This is such an amazing paring knife. The handle and bolster on this knife fits in my hand really nicely, giving me extra comfort in griping my knife while I peel and slice produce. I like the smaller blade on this compared to the 4”, it’s a little easier to really get a close peel with a smaller 3” blade. A more traditional Japanese style paring, this is a great alternative to the other Pro paring knives.

I only used to use my paring knife for peeling apples and taking eyes out of potatoes until I tried this little guy. I use this all the time now for small chopping especially on garlic, cherry tomatoes and olives. I have also used this knife to create garnishes, the curved bolster lets my hand get close to the blade without sacrificing stability.

So perfect for paring! I use it to make apple flowers and peeling oranges. The knife is made from a fully forged piece of steel so very strong. The blade has also been ice hardened so it has the perfect amount of flexibility but always returns to its original position. I love the curved bolster, I have complete control when I grip it.

This little knife is a life saver. I use it for all my fruits and vegetables that fit in my hand, where a paring or utility knife would be a bit large. Great for peeling, cleaning and cutting of smaller fruits and vegetables. Durable, easy to hold and such great moveability

Great little knife!
Really love this knife. I have 2 other paring knives, but the shape of the 3 1/2 in vegetable knife is perfect! Tiny tip for delicate work & just the right size for cutting fruits or vegetables.

Great knife!!!
I have 4 of the 4” paring knives which I use on a daily basis but thought there would be times I would need a smaller knife. Which I have used this 3 1/2” vegetable knife, I do find I use my 4” paring knives more. This being said I am 100% satisfied with my all my Zwilling knives. When researching knives, my husband said get German made this time and quit wasting money, and I did and so glad I did!!!
