I just received the Miyabi Birchwood paring knife, and even with limited use I can tell it’s going to be a favorite pairing knife yet. The balance feels spot-on in my hand, and the fit and finish are exactly what you’d expect. Until this arrived, I didn't realize how much I needed a quality knife of this size.
I reach for it when I need more precision than my chef’s knife gives me, and it’s been incredibly sharp right out of the box. Early impressions are very positive, especially for detailed prep work.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Definitely my favorite paring knife.

This knife fits perfectly in my hand and is nicely weighted. I am a little sad that the packaging is significantly lower quality than what I got when I ordered products about a year ago, but the quality of the knife is great, from what I can tell.
