Doesn’t this picture make you happy? These knives are from the brand Kuhn Rikon. I just want to collect them all. Although it might be quite normal for a rainbow of knives to make me giddy inside, it might not for you. However, please let me take a minute to explain why you should even care about these petite babies. The best part for me, other than their ruggedly good looks, is the price. They are simply affordable and adorable. Secondly, they are nonstick knives with carbon steel blades and soft rubbery feeling handles for no-slip gripping. You won’t have a hard time washing the gunk off of them and food will slide off as you slice. Lastly, they each come with their own plastic sheath case so the blades don’t get easily dull or damaged, and it’s convenient to take with you when you go on a picnic or camping. In fact, I did go camping recently and brought mine along with me.
Use pairing knives for small jobs such as cutting fruit, tomatoes and cucumbers or for detailed work such as scoring mangoes and avocados. I often give these guys out as gifts, so if you already received one from me, just know that it isn’t a random present because I don’t know what to give you. I truly do love them and think that every house hold should have them in their drawer.
I own this green guy because it’s pretty obvious that I like green. Let’s be clear here. I like all citrus colors, so that would be green, yellow and orange. I think it just makes me happy. I think he may have been my first knife, but he is not my last. I also have his friends, a red serrated knife and a blue chef’s knife. Sorry, I guess they’re like potato chips. You can’t just have one. Oh and say what you will about carbon steel blades, but I haven’t had a problem with these blades rusting or going dull yet. Hope you decide to get one and let me know what you think of it.
