Mercer Sports Millennia Colors 3in Paring Knife Yellow Handle M23930YLB

The Mercer Sports Millennia Colors 3" Paring Knife with a yellow handle is a compact yet powerful kitchen essential, engineered for the detail work that larger knives can’t match. Perfect for peeling fruit, trimming vegetables, deveining shrimp, or creating decorative cuts, this knife provides sharp precision and dependable control every time. Designed for professional chefs and home cooks alike, it offers the durability and safety needed in fast-paced kitchens without sacrificing comfort.

The blade is crafted from one-piece high-carbon Japanese steel, known for its strength, edge retention, and easy maintenance. This steel allows for rapid sharpening and ensures the edge stays razor sharp through repeated use. At 3 inches, the blade is designed for maneuverability in tight, detailed tasks, while its 15° edge delivers clean, precise cuts. With an HRC hardness rating of 53-54, the knife balances toughness and sharpness, holding its edge well while remaining resistant to chipping or brittleness. Lightweight stamped construction enhances agility, making it a reliable go-to for intricate work.

The handle is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and safety. Constructed from Santoprene® and polypropylene, it combines a soft, slip-resistant grip with long-term durability. Raised Santoprene® texturing improves traction, while textured finger points provide extra control and reduce the risk of slips, even when your hands are wet. A protective finger guard adds another level of security, letting you work with confidence. The bright yellow handle adds a burst of color to your kitchen setup and also makes identification quick and easy—ideal for environments that use color coding to reduce cross-contamination. NSF certification ensures that the knife meets strict food safety and performance standards, making it suitable for both professional and home use.

To keep the knife in peak condition, proper care is essential. Always wash by hand with warm water and mild soap, then dry immediately with a soft towel. Dishwashers should be avoided, as high heat, harsh detergents, and friction can dull or damage the knife. Prolonged soaking and exposure to chlorine or bleach can also cause staining or pitting, so avoid these conditions entirely. For long-term safety and edge protection, store the knife in a sheath or cutlery block.

Reliable, sharp, and built for precision, the Mercer Sports Millennia Colors 3" Paring Knife with a yellow handle is a versatile tool that brings professional-level performance to any kitchen. Shop this bright yellow colored handle for your Paring Knife at SMKW!
