4.52 Stars (21 reviews)

The 3.5" paring knife from the Yu Series is built for the small, close work a chef's knife can't reach. A 67-layer Damascus blade wraps a 10Cr15CoMoV core, hardened to 60±2 HRC and ground to 15° per side. The short, agile blade and full-tang Rosewood handle give you in-hand control for peeling, trimming, coring and detail cuts.

Small Blade, Total Control

YU SERIES

Small Blade, Total Control

The Yu Series paring knife is the precision tool of the range. At 3.5 inches the blade is short enough to work in your hand, off the board, where a chef's knife is too long and too blunt for the job. A 67-layer Damascus blade over a 10Cr15CoMoV core gives you a thin, keen edge for peeling, hulling, trimming and turning vegetables. Hardened to 60±2 HRC and finished with a full-tang Rosewood handle, it is the knife you reach for the moment the work gets small and the cuts get fine.

For the Jobs Too Small for a Chef's Knife

IN-HAND PRECISION

For the Jobs Too Small for a Chef's Knife

A 3.5" blade is the right length for detail work: peeling apples, deveining prawns, coring tomatoes, segmenting citrus, trimming fat and scoring dough. The narrow profile slips into tight cuts and the 15°-per-side edge parts skin and flesh cleanly without crushing. Light at 98g in the hand, it stays controllable through fine, repetitive work.

67-Layer Damascus Over a Hard Core

BLADE & STEEL

67-Layer Damascus Over a Hard Core

The blade is 67 layers of Damascus steel folded around a 10Cr15CoMoV cutting core, hardened to 60±2 HRC. That core holds a fine edge through repeated small cuts; the layered cladding gives the blade its flowing Damascus pattern and supports the core. Each blade is vacuum heat treated and deep frozen for consistent hardness, then ground to 15° per side.

Full Tang, Rosewood Grip

HANDLE & BUILD

Full Tang, Rosewood Grip

The Rosewood handle runs over a full tang, so steel carries the length of the knife for balance and durability through years of detail work. Rosewood is warm and dense in the hand, sized for the pinch grip and fine control that paring work demands. Hand wash and dry only, never the dishwasher.
