- HOSHANHO 3.75 inch Paring Knife, Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel Small Kitchen Knives, Ultra Sharp Fruit Knife with Ergonomic Pakkawood Handle

Very nice paring knife - I’ve been using it daily for about two years now, and there are no signs of wear and tear on it. Not even rust. It’s just the right size for small cutting jobs around the kitchen. The handle is very comfortable for a good grip. It stays sharp quite a long time after sharpening. Sharp tip is good for cutting out small eyes on potatoes and opening containers. I use it multiple times a day alongside my Japanese chef knives. It is also pretty and came in a beautiful package.

Worth the investment. Holder great too. Ive used these knives about 2 months. Fantastic! Makes cooking prep easier with keen edge and great shape. The wood magnet holder is both handsome and effective. There was room for me to add another large knife to the set. They are very comfortable, thick enough blade to have good function, nice construction and gorgeous. So lovely that I can't help but think these came from Lothlorien. :) They were on sale for for $90 when I bought them, and first time I bought extra nice cooking ware. It was well worth it! I tossed out the mishmash drawers of mediocre blades, good to invest in this nice easy to store set. I cannot attest to its long term capabilities yet, but for now I love them, and they are nice enough to show in my sword collection instead of a kitchen. These knives are nice, i want to upgrade my kitchen to display them in. I added a picture to show how well the heavier "half cleaver" model fits in with the set on the bar.

I’ve been looking for a dedicated paring knife that feels professional without the luxury price tag, and the HOSHANHO 3.75 inch really hit the mark. For a "small" knife, it carries a lot of value. What Stands Out: Insane Sharpness: Right out of the box, this thing is wicked sharp. It handles delicate tasks—like peeling ginger or deveining shrimp—with zero resistance. Balance & Grip: The ergonomics are great. It feels balanced in the hand, which gives you a lot of confidence when doing detail work or "off-the-board" cutting. Steel Quality: The Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel holds an edge much better than the cheap sets you find at big-box stores. It has a nice "bite" to it that makes slicing through tough tomato skins effortless. Aesthetics: It actually looks beautiful. The finish is polished, and it feels like a tool that will last a long time if you take care of it (hand wash only, folks!). The Verdict: If you’re tired of struggling with dull, flimsy utility knives, this is a massive upgrade. It’s the perfect size for those quick kitchen tasks where a chef's knife is just too bulky. Highly recommended for home cooks who want pro-level precision.

Love these knives. Purchased the 6 piece set after trying out the Chef's knife. They are sharp (extremely sharp) and can cut paper thin slices with ease. I had my first knife for almost a year and have not lost the edge, nor have had any issues with oxidation. They are well balanced and comfortable to use. The knives are standard sizes and well worth the price. The magnet is strong and easy to install. After cleaning the wall as instructed, we used the tape provided in the package and has been

Where do I begin? I previously wrote a review about my experience with this knife. I gave him three stars because of some quality concerns. Truthfully, even with the little issues that were only aesthetic. These were a fantastic set of knives. I even bought one of the fillet knives I like them so much. I regret not getting the 9 inch but it’s a fantastic file now. Shortly after my review that had some negative comments about quality control. I received an email from the company. I was shocked because it was fairly quick. They wanted me to send additional pictures so they could see what I was talking about with variations and finish that I said looked like it wasn’t completed. After seeing what I sent them, they ended up giving me a full refund.😳 I was so confused. I never intended on giving these knives back. I just thought that the finish look like a step was missing on the polish in a couple areas and the way that the blades grind was achieved had some inconsistencies I’m talking about the shiny metal edge. The blade itself was fantastic. This company gave me a full refund and let me keep these knives. Who does that? Let’s just say I’m purchasing the 6.9 inch Butcher now next. Listen these knives are absolutely lovely. Extremely high-quality and not just because of the price. They’re designed very well with an extremely unique economic handle design. I’m not sure what happened on this set of knives in the final polishing and sharpening phase for the issues that I saw. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy these all over again. So I can praise these knives all day because of them being such a good product, but this company is fantastic. I have never had such a pleasant experience with a company that actually gives a damn about their product. They have a customer for life. It made me want to just buy all the knives so I can’t afford to finish this head out knowing I’ll never use half of them. 😅🤣😂. This is a wonderful company and anyone in the market for some good quality kitchen knives couldn’t go wrong by buying them here. This company stands behind the product and in my opinion went above and beyond any expectation I could’ve imagined.

Love these knives. The magnetic strip is very strong and they stick to it well. They also pull off the strip well when you want to use them. The handle and shape fit in the hand nice with a good weight and they slice well to. Anything you need to cut, they can handle the job and are very sharp. Good quality and good performance over all.

This is the third type of Hoshanho knife I have purchased. I have purchased several of the carving, filet and bread knives for myself and also for family and friends. Everyone is thoroughly impressed and happy with their knives. They all have a comfortable grip, very sharp blades, (be careful, as to not slice through your fingers). Yes, they are that sharp. I just received my new paring knife. It is my go to knife now for everything. It slices through tomatoes, onions, peppers, cucumbers, (you name it), with such ease and precision. One can produce very thin slices perfectly and so easily. They are also very nice looking knives. As for the price, they are a little on the high side, but there are sales on them frequently, that make them quite reasonable and well worth spending the money for.

Outstanding product and very sharp

Vraiment très bien, il coupe super bien et en plus ils sont stylée.

I use this knife on a daily basis, and its still nice and sharp, I think it offers good value.

Threw this magnetic board up on a wall to see how it looked. (Ignore the ugly wall and the crookedness) It works great. Magnetism is all across the board with maybe <cm gap in between where there’s no or opposing) magnetism. Nice wood with a great finish. This 12” piece held six knives, and I could squeeze a seventh skinny blade on there if I had one. The quality of the knives is great. I ordered two filleting knives before and they work phenomenally. Very sharp out of the box. This is a great set for the price with the craftsmanship you get. Very worth it. Note: haven’t tried sharpening yet, because they’re still sharp, so I can’t comment on that, but hard knives that keep their edge like these do are usually a slog to sharpen. ?

Ottimo prodotto, di qualità.
