Certified as a Master Bladesmith by the American Bladesmith Society, Bob Kramer is one of the only Master Bladesmiths in the world specializing in kitchen cutlery. Cook’s Illustrated once wrote: “The Kramer knife outperformed every knife we’ve ever rated.” Put simply, Kramer is King of the Kitchen Knife. Saveur dubbed Bob “The Master of the Blade.”

For this exclusive collection, Sur La Table worked with the master himself—along with renowned German knife maker Zwilling J.A. Henckels—to create an exquisite line of artisan knives designed by Bob and crafted to his exacting specifications.

The paring knife is ideal for peeling, dicing, and small tasks like de-veining shrimp, removing seeds from peppers, creating decorative garnishes, and much more. Hand wash. 31/2'''' blade. Limited lifetime warranty. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, exclusively for Sur La Table. Features Hide
