Wusthof Classic 3-Inch Serrated Paring Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this when it came up in my Gold Box. As a fan of the Wusthof classic line, I thought it would be a useful addition to my other knives. Yes, it is well made, earning it three stars.
On the minus side, its serrated edge makes it less useful as a paring knife, as I can attest from having cut myself several times on those serrated points. For mincing, I much prefer either the smaller of my chef's knives or even a 4 inch utility knife. Unfortunately, the blade is too short and too curved to work well as a tomato slicer.
Over time mine I noticed that kitchen "helpers" in the family would reach for it--the novelty factor--use it briefly, and return to an old favorite, i.e., one of the standard paring knives, the 4 inch utility knife, or one of the chef's knives. As a result, this knife has been relegated to storage with the specialty knives in a bin at the back of the drawer with other knives we use only rarely.
Bottom line: For use as a dedicated bar knife for citrus, it would be fine. If you are looking for a more versatile knife, my advice is to consider other knives in this line.
