Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kuhn Rikon Colori Nonstick 4-Inch Paring Knife with Sheath, Red
Customer Review: Pretty, sharp, but go for different style handle
Summary: 3 Stars
I'd seen these Kuhn Rikon knives recommended, and finding them at a discount picked up a couple of paring knives in this style ("Paring Knife Colori" on the package), and one of the slightly larger utility in a different style ("Nonstick ...."). The blades on both are nicely sharp, and they function well. Plus, the nicely designed sheaths make them attractive for camping, and they are even a nice backpacking weight.
HOWEVER .... I would warn you away from this simpler style, with a single-colored handle. That handle is smooth plastic, overly slick even when dry and I'm sure even more so when covered with peach juice, say. Further, there is not adequate contouring of the handle, little to keep your fingers off the blade or ensure a good grip. Especially with a blade this sharp, you don't want to end up grasping the wrong end!
Instead, I'd urge you to get one of the slightly more expensive "Nonstick" line. This has a handle with a textured surface and a nice contour that ensures a firm grip. The description is confusing, because all the knives are nonstick coated, and Amazon refers to all of them as 'nonstick', applying the term 'colori' to the ones I'm talking about (though Kuhn Riko calls them all 'colori'). Go by appearance ... the ones you want have a more obvious hand grip look to them, and the handle is two tone, with white where your fingers grip. Kuhn Rikon Colori Nonstick Paring Knife, Blue
