This is NOT the 4-inch model:
This is NOT the 4-inch paring knife that is recommended by ATK, this is the 3-1/2-inch version. I haven't seen the 4-inch available at Amazon, but it is available elsewhere.
mediocre:
I am a HUGE fan of the Forschner full size chef knives. They are well worth the money. this little knife though is $$$ thrown away. Invest in a forged paring knife like a Wusthof or similar. This did not hold its edge, dulled quickly, and was basically garbage.
Excellent value in knives:
I truly love these knives. They feel good in the hand, are very sharp and are very reasonably priced. I received mine as a gift and recently purchased some for my son for his first apartment. Highly recommended.
great little knife:
my boyfriend bought me this knife (how funny is that! :)) and its a great practical addition to my kitchen.
