High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Benchmark Ceramic Paring Knife with Black Synthetic Handle is a lightweight yet highly capable tool designed for precision and reliability in the kitchen. Compact and efficient, it’s built for everyday prep work, excelling in tasks that require control and fine detail. Whether you’re slicing fruit, trimming vegetables, or handling delicate garnishes, this paring knife offers a clean and precise cut every time.
Its 3-inch ceramic drop point blade is crafted from white zirconia oxide, a material prized for its exceptional hardness and edge retention. Ceramic blades stay sharp far longer than traditional steel, requiring minimal maintenance while delivering razor-sharp performance. The smooth, non-reactive surface won’t rust, pit, or discolor foods, making it especially useful when working with acidic ingredients like tomatoes or citrus. With its drop point profile, the blade provides the perfect balance of versatility and accuracy for detailed kitchen work.
Despite its refined cutting ability, the knife is built with durability and user comfort in mind. Measuring 7 inches overall and weighing only 1.60 ounces, it’s extremely lightweight, reducing fatigue during extended prep sessions. The full tang construction ensures stability and strength, while the black synthetic polymer handle delivers a comfortable and secure grip. Designed to withstand the demands of a busy kitchen, the handle’s smooth contours and resilient material hold up to daily use with ease.
The knife includes a black polymer sheath for safe storage and transport. This sheath not only protects the blade from damage but also makes it convenient to keep the knife close at hand in a drawer, knife roll, or travel kit. Together, the blade and sheath form a compact, efficient system that’s perfect for both home cooks and those who need a dependable knife on the go.
The Benchmark Ceramic Paring Knife is more than just a small utility blade—it’s a tool that delivers consistent precision with every use. By combining modern ceramic blade technology with a lightweight synthetic handle and practical sheath, it offers both performance and convenience. For anyone who values sharpness, efficiency, and ease of maintenance, this knife is a standout choice.
