J.A International Accessories Paring Knife Set, 3-piece, Black

What a great set! I like the colored handles that make it easy to get the blade I want. The handles are comfortable to hold, provide a good grip, and are durable. The blades are made from good quality steel that is stiff enough to control, flexible enough to be useful. They hold an edge well, and are no worse to sharpen than any other stainless steel blade. The blade on all but the red handled knife taper from the back to the cutting edge which sure helps their cutting performance. The red handled knife has a 13 cm [5 inch] blade with medium serrations. It is great for slicing tomatoes. The tip is NOT sharpened - but a few minutes with a file and stone and mine is now. The green handled knife has an 8 cm [3 inch] blade and is a general purpose paring knife. This knife alone is arguably worth the price of the four! The yellow handled knife has a straight cutting edge and a curved spine - be careful not to try to use it upside down. The blue handled knife has a 6 cm [2.5 inch] blade that cuts on the inside curve. This makes it hard to sharpen on a flat stone, but the hook shape, short blade, and sharp tip is great for coring strawberries. The blades are magnetic enough the are held secure on my magnet knife rack.

Includes a nice serrated tomato knife and a bird beak pealing knife. This was a gift and was very appreciated. Most paring knives aren't quality, these are.

I love these knives. They stay sharp and are comfortable in the hand. I purchased this set to replace the lost paring knife from my previous set and I am sure they will last just as long. They are dishwasher safe. Great value since they last forever.

Practical, well made daily paring knives

So many reviews moaning that this 4 piece paring set is made in China. Yes, they are. It says so in the description and on the knives in the pictures. If those reviewers bothered to read and zoom in on the pics, they wouldn’t be so disappointed when their bad assumptions failed them. This set is just $20 in April 2022; $5/knife with a lifetime warranty. You are not getting the equivalent German made knife set at that price. Last time a Henkel set like this was $20, Nixon or Carter was President. One has to be delusional or way out of touch to think they can get this set made in Germany set for $20. If you want a version of this set made in Germany, you can. Go a premium reseller, a department store like Macy’s. There you will find the equivalent set made in Germany. The cost is nearly 4 times what this made in China set is. Maybe they hold their edge better or have other quality worth that. You can decide if it’s worth it for you. This China made set is fair price for mass market knife set like this. I used them once so far. They cut well, clean up well, easy to maneuver in hand which is what you want in a paring knife. Time will tell how well they keep their edge. I suspect they will work and last at least as well if not better than most other comparable sets at this price. If not, there’s that lifetime warranty available. Be sure to register, there is a gift when you do. I just did and they are sending me another knife.

I've had these for many years, still use them regularly and they work really well. The best paring knives you can find!

These are great. Bought another single knife at a henckle store and it went right into my knife block. These are as good, grip well, and hold an edge quite well. Now always have a clean one available in the drawer.

We started using Hinkle knives many years back. We’ve used other pairing knives but, none compare to Hinkle’s. My mom hates to use any other brands. They are fairly light weight, have a great comfortable handle, are easy to find in the drawer (because of the colorful handles), and stay sharp much longer than any other pairing knives we’ve had. Very well made and last years and an amazing price for the quality! Can’t recommend enough!!

I’ve been using these knives for a couple years, they’re still sharp and I use them all the time! Very well made
