A smaller version of the chef's knife but with less curve to the blade, the paring knife is designed to function as an extension of your hand for up-close work with smaller fruits and vegetables. Shaped like a bird's beak, this 2.75" peeler is great for apples, potatoes, and other round produce typically peeled in a single continuous motion; the tip is also nifty for nicking the eyes out of potatoes.
