Misono, one of the world's best kitchen knife makers, offers the Molybdenum Steel Series as their most affordable range. However, the quality and finish of these highly practical and functional knives are comparable to Misono’s more expensive product lines. Indeed, Misono's high standards of quality have not been compromised in the slightest.

The blade is crafted from AUS-8 (HRc. 57), a high-carbon 13 Chrome Molybdenum stainless steel known for strong corrosion resistance, great durability, high cutting performance, and ease of re-sharpening.

This knife features full tang construction, water-resistant black Pakka wood (resin-impregnated wood composite) handle scales, and stainless steel bolsters for extra durability and improved blade balance.

The Paring knife is ideal for a variety of common kitchen tasks, especially peeling and precise shaping of fruits and vegetables. Paring knives are particularly useful for cutting small items held in the hand, making them indispensable in the kitchen and an ideal companion for Gyuto knives.
