Built For The Fiddly Jobs

Why It Earns Bench Space

Built For The Fiddly Jobs

A paring knife lives or dies on control. The short 110mm blade and 110g weight keep it nimble in hand, while the 2.2mm spine gives enough rigidity to drive a tip through dense produce without flex. German 1.4116 takes a keen 15° edge and resists corrosion from acidic fruit and brine — exactly what a paring knife meets all day. Full-tang construction runs the steel through the handle for balance and durability.

German 1.4116, Hardened To 56-58 HRC

The Steel

German 1.4116, Hardened To 56-58 HRC

This blade is solid German 1.4116 (X50CrMoV15) — a proven stainless chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel, not a clad or Damascus blade. It is vacuum heat-treated and deep-cooled to 56-58 HRC: a deliberate hardness that holds a working edge while staying easy to re-sharpen and resistant to chipping on hard contact. For a knife you use for quick, frequent jobs and rinse between tasks, that balance is the right call.

Red Wood, Full Tang

In The Hand

Red Wood, Full Tang

The handle is red wood over a full tang, secured with stainless steel rivets. The steel carries through the full length of the handle, so the knife balances toward the bolster and points where you point it — essential for the fingertip control paring work demands. Hand wash only; this is a wood-handled blade, not a dishwasher tool.

FAQs

Is this a Damascus knife?

No. The X02 Supreme paring knife is a solid German 1.4116 stainless blade — no Damascus pattern and no clad layers. It is an honest monosteel working knife.

How hard is the blade?

56-58 HRC. That is a practical working hardness — it holds a good edge for everyday paring and is straightforward to re-sharpen at home, while staying tough against chipping.

What is it best used for?

Small, in-hand jobs: peeling, coring, hulling, deveining, segmenting citrus, scoring and trimming. It is the precision partner to a larger chef's or santoku knife.

What edge angle does it come at?

Ground to 15±1° per side, so it arrives sharp and bites cleanly into produce out of the box.

Can it go in the dishwasher?

No — hand wash only and dry it. It has a red wood handle and a carbon-bearing stainless blade; the dishwasher will damage both over time.

How big is the blade?

4 inches / 110mm, with a 2.2mm spine, and the knife weighs 110g — short and light for fingertip control.

Is the handle full tang?

Yes. The steel runs the full length of the red wood handle and is set with stainless steel rivets, giving the balance and durability paring work needs.
