OAKSWARE Bird Beak Peeling Knife

This is a very sharp knife, the quality and it’s a heavy duty small knife and peels. Awesome. Be careful cause it will cut your thumb but it’s awesome. I love it.

Very Sharp. Well Balanced and stylish handle with good grip. Perfect size for fruits and vegetable. Very pleased with this produce. Excellent price. Great quality. I would gladly recommend. It did not come with a sheath/blade cover and I wish it did. I got my MoneysWorth.

A lethal little knife, very sturdy and sharp. For some reason it always seems like it would like to cut me...The square handle is about the only thing that was surprising about it, but that is okay, not a deal breaker.

Very impressed with all the OAKSWARE product line. Strong steel, very sharp and long lasting. Convenient Handles for all the styles. Perfect knife for the price. Pretty heavy, comparing to the other similar other brand knifes. Not for Dishwasher - heat may destroy the black Delrin® on knife handles. Even though it says stainless steel, just make sure to vipe it dry after washing, before storing in the wood block, or drawer. Purchased all the pieces for the kitchen - 8", 6" Chief Knifes, Paring and Bird Beak. Be careful, don't challenge the sharpness! Looking forward also to buy the 7" Santoku, when it will be available on Amazon.

Looking for a birdbeak paring knife like my grandmother's, which I loved, and this seemed a good place to start. I have only had this a couple of days, but so far am pretty happy with it, and the price is just right for this lovely knife, and to check out this brand. It is sharp, seems like good steel, although the finishing on the blade leaves a bit to be desired - like they skipped the last two polishing levels, machine marks in the blade etc but given the price, not surprising. The handle is finished superbly, very smooth, satin finish - so they spent the time where it was important. It is forged and full tang. The handle feels very good in the hand, comfortable and weighty. Do know that this is a large, heavy knife, not the tiny bird beak I was expecting. I have medium large hands, and the handle fit is perfect for me, so just an observation for potential buyers. The balance falls on the second and third fingers, back about a third of the way into the handle. I have not yet used this on a major peeling task, like canning peaches, so I don't know how the heavier weight will effect wrist tiring on extensive use (which was mentioned in another review), or more delicate hands. If you are hesitating because you think this price may indicate junk, wait no longer.

This is the heaviest paring knife I own and I really didn't think I would like it, but it turns out that it has become my favorite knife. I reach for this knife first for slicing fruit, peeling vegetables, doing most prep work. It is well balanced so it feels right in your hand. it holds an edge well and slices through fruits and veggies easily. So happy with my purchase. I may look for other style knives from this company

I bought this 4-5 years ago on Amazon and have used it quite a bit, love the bird beak blade for cutting into fruits and veggies. To me the curved blade is a lot better than a small, straight-blade paring knife. I bought this one again as the tip was bent and the knife was well used. The new one arrived, straight point and sharp edge. So sharp my sister-in-law was washing the dishes and sliced her finger. So beware, it is a low-cost knife but does arrive sharp. Pleased with this find and was happy to see it is still being sold. I even didnt reorder from my history, I found it by image and thought it looked close to my old one and it was an exact match when it arrived.

I'm not sure you can beat the price/value metric for this knife. Does anyone really need a bird's beak paring knife? Probably not but for some reason I like using one from time to time to cut the tops off of strawberries or peel some garlic. Decent German steel and otherwise fine build quality. I'm not sure what else you could ask for in a $10 knife. Perhaps the full tang construction and bolster are a bit of an overkill for a knife this size and you might consider a thinner, lighter knife depending on your hand size and strength. My other small go to knife is a Henckel 3" paring knife with a red plastic handle - no bolster, no full tang. I can see how it's slimmer, lighter build might be attractive to some. I have one nit to pick and that's the fact that the full bolster extends all the way down the length of the blade. Now a full bolsterdoes add strength to a blade and I could see having one on a 10" chef's knife which I might occasionally use to hack a bone. Otherwise, on a smaller knife like this I would prefer not to have it. Not having a full bolster would make it a little lighter, easier to handle and more importantly, easier to sharpen. But if you're dead set on this type of knife/construction I don't think you can go to far wrong with this one.

Este cuchillo me encantó al inicio, lo usé mucho para pelar cosas pequeñas, pero un día al estar lavándolo y se me cayó dentro de la tarja de acero inoxidable, se rompió la punta. Ahora lo tengo cómo un cuchillo más, dejó de ser ese cuchillo especial, su punta es frágil. Tengo otros cuchillos muy económicos y se han caído al suelo y las puntas siguen intactas.

Beautifully balanced quality pairing knife made to last a lifetime. Definitely purchase from this supplier again.
