Shujin 3-piece Paring Knife Set

Meet the Shujin Series 3-Piece Paring Knife Set — a precise trio for in-hand work and small-format prep. The curved bird’s beak peeler scores and turns with control, the straight-edge parer handles daily trimming and garnishes, and the serrated parer breezes through skins and delicate crusts. All three feature a VG-10 steel core with Damascus cladding and ergonomic G10 handles for secure grip.

 

Key Highlights

• Three-task toolkit: bird’s beak for peeling/turning, straight-edge for trim & detail, serrated for slippery skins
• VG-10 core, Damascus clad (67-layer) for bite, edge life, and corrosion resistance
• Comfortable G10 handles with mosaic pin and polished rivets
• Balanced control for safe, accurate in-hand cuts
• Includes 3 fitted sheaths and a signature gift box

Why This Paring Knife Set Works

• Bird’s beak: concave edge hugs curves for peeling, tournée cuts, and garnishes
• Straight-edge: go-to for trimming, de-seeding, segmenting citrus, and small board work
• Serrated: micro-teeth bite through tomato/stone-fruit skins and soft crusts without crushing

FAQ

What tasks suit each knife?

Bird’s beak for peeling/turning; straight-edge for trimming and small prep; serrated for slippery skins and soft crusts.

 

Are the knives stainless?

Yes. The VG-10 core is clad in stainless Damascus for excellent corrosion resistance; still hand-wash and dry promptly.

 

Do the knives come with sheaths?

Yes — three fitted sheaths, one for each paring knife, are included for safe storage and travel.

 

Do I need different sharpening for the serrated parer?

The serrated edge requires occasional specialized touch-ups; straight edges maintain at ~12° per side using stones or rods.
