The Victorinox Swiss Army Serrated Paring Knife features a 3.25-inch stainless steel blade with a serrated edge designed for precision slicing of delicate fruits and vegetables.

## Description

When it comes to precision and accuracy, the paring knife is every chef's answer. This 3¼" Spear Point Paring Knife with Serrated Edge is extremely sharp and ready for anything from slicing and dicing to peeling and garnishing. Excellent for tackling fruits and vegetables with softer skins, such as tomatoes and peaches, but it is also perfectly suited for tasks such as expertly removing pepper seeds, coring an apple, trimming beans, or deveining shrimp with ease. The uniform cuts will help you make every meal a work of art. A versatile paring knife is an essential tool in every kitchen. Like the chef's knife, a paring knife is meant to be used for a wide array of jobs; however, the first and foremost function of a paring knife is detail work and greater control. Its slightly curved blade and pointed tip even resemble a chef's knife, but, is a fraction of the size, which makes it great for small, precision cuts where control is essential. The sharp points of the serrated edge pierce into soft skinned fruits and veggies to maintain a strong hold, offering better control throughout slicing. The scallops between each point reduce friction, so each slice feels effortless and prevents the knife from squashing the tender interior of whatever you are slicing. The pointed tip allows you to make intricate cuts or check the tenderness of meat and vegetables. With increased maneuverability and dexterity, you'll find endless opportunities to utilize this nimble knife. Featuring a world-renowned blade and perfect balance, this 3¼" Parer provides a professional-grade tool optimized for home use. The tapered knife edge is ground in two directions to hold a sharp edge longer, and can easily be brought back to its original sharpness. The slightly larger handle found on this paring knife provides additional weight to ensure perfect balance, and offers additional comfort allowing for precise and effortless cuts every time. The ergonomically designed, non-slip textured handle is extremely durable and provides a sure grip and easy handling even when wet, making each cut safer and more efficient. Whether a seasoned, or novice home chef, Victorinox Swiss Army offers not only the right tools and the know-how, but most importantly, the confidence to achieve one’s culinary aspirations. Expertly crafted in Switzerland since 1884, Victorinox offers a lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship. Formerly Forschner In 1937 Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R.H. Forschner & Co. A well-known manufacturer of butcher scales, Forschner soon became the exclusive U.S. distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the name by which Victorinox knives were known. In 2011 Victorinox began marketing all its product lines, including kitchen knives, under the common umbrella name by which the company is now popularly known – Victorinox Swiss Army. Today, Victorinox Swiss Army still sells a handful of accessories, including the High Heat Turner line, under the Forschner name. Care and Use Be good to your knives and they’ll be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife! Hand Washing Victorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately. Dishwasher While this knife is dishwasher safe, we still recommend hand washing, as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge. Maintaining your Knife’s Edge For optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best, but remember that a honing steel will not sharpen a dull knife. Honing steels are maintenance tools and are used to help keep an already sharp blade from degrading. During use, a knife edge becomes rolled or turned from direct contact with cutting boards, bones or other hard objects. In this case, honing is necessary to straighten the edge of the knife. After significant use, the steel particles become damaged and the edge cannot be brought back by honing, so sharpening is necessary. If your knives are dull, pitted, or you see visible nicks on the cutting edge, you’ll need to sharpen with a Swiss Sharp Handheld Sharpener (49002) or bring to a professional for re-sharpening. History and Heritage In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers’ union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldier’s Knife and in 1897 with the Officer’s Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as “inoxydable” and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox. It is from those humble beginnings that a worldwide icon was born. Today, Victorinox is still owned and operated by the Elsener family, and both the company and family still resides in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland.

Review: Very Good - Love it, feel of gripper, size & thickness of blade. The weight. Sharp. My favorite paring knife. Others in trash!
Review: More bang for your buck - I am writing this review after two full years of using this knife, and it hasn't let me down yet! I am a three knife kind of guy: one chefs knife, one bread knife, and one paring knife. It keeps my kitchen uncluttered, simple, and most importantly costs less money. That being said, I put more value in quality than price - my daily chef knife has been the $150 MAC Pro for years. When I first started looking for a paring knife, of course I was attracted to the big names like Wüsthof, Global, and Henkels. However, after reading the reviews I decided to give this little guy a chance. I'm willing to spend $40 on a paring knife, but I can certainly spend a few bucks to see if I like this one more. I'm so glad I did - this knife lives up to the all the other glowing reviews. It comes sharp out of the box and has stayed that way with very little decline in my time using it. The handle is comfortable enough in my hand (I'm right handed, but it's symmetrical so a lefty would also find it easy to use). The blade holds up to tough use but is slightly flexible so it feels more like an extension of my hand. The best part is the price! Great performance for 1/3 to 1/5 the price of comparable products. That's a winner in my book. If there is a negative, perhaps I would prefer that it had a little more heft. If weight is very, very important to you, go give an all-metal Global a try. Otherwise, pick up one of these knives and get a great product for a fraction of the cost of another paring knife.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is it made**
A: My paring knife has no marking on it, but the Victorinox packaging says (on the back) it was made in Switzerland. Great little knife.

**Q: description says fibrox handle but the picture seems to contradict this...is this the case?**
A: The Knife labeled, "Victorinox Swiss Army 3-1/4-Inch Fibrox Straight Edge Paring Knife, Black" which I purchased from Amazon has a polypropylene handle, not Fibrox.  On this page it is listed as being Item model number: 45508, but the item I received (twice) says 40508 on the sleeve the knife came in.  I am still in search of the, as of yet, elusive Victorinox paring knife with Fibrox handle which Cooks Illustrated described as:"Product name: Victorinox Fibrox Paring Knife, 3 1/4-inchManufacturer: Victorinox Model Number: 40600 Recommendation Status: Highly Recommended"The Amazon link at Cooks Illustrated brings one to the Amazon page:  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000EYUDZE/?tag=cioequippilot-20   (Forschner 3.25" Paring Knife) which has no mention of a Fibrox handle, but instead describes the handle as, "Polypropylene handles is dishwasher safe."Amazon says it is working on this problem.

**Q: What is the model number of the Victorinox knife with the Fibrox handle ?   It is not the one on this page, despite what the title says.**
A: If you're still interested, this is the set of three paring knives with Fibrax handles (or so it states): https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-Swiss-Classic-3-Piece-Paring/dp/B005LRYWEW/ref=psdc_284507_t4_B008M5U1UE. The price at the time I'm writing is $15.48 and includes 3-1/4" Serrated Parer, 3-1/4" Straight Parer, and 2 -1/2" Bird's Beak Parer.  Hope that helps. I DO have to say though, in the picture for the set, the knives appear to have polypropylene handles. I could be wrong though...been wrong before.... Anyway, have a good day!

**Q: What sheath would I order to fit this knife?**
A: For the Victorinox 40600 3.25" Paring Knife there is a Victorinox Paring Knife Pouch with Clip.This would most likely be the best option for this pairing knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A really useful knife which I reach for all the time.
*by J***L on January 10, 2026*

This is a really good find. It is a useful and durable knife that I reach for all the time in my kitchen, and I am sort of a knife fanatic. I have tried literally 7 different paring knives and while they start out sharp, they generally need a lot of care and re-sharpening/honing. This knife feels light and kind of flimsy but it has a very thin blade and is actually very durable. It is kind of like using a scalpel, which I use at work. It is very light but has a very sharp edge and re-sharpens easily with a sharpening steel.
