Dellinger Pinkiss Paring Knife, 90 mm, VG-10

Dellinger Pinkiss Paring 90 mm is ideal for tasks where a large chef's knife would be unnecessarily long. The short blade is easy to control when peeling fruit, removing cores, trimming vegetables and carrying out other small kitchen tasks.

Beneath its distinctive appearance lies a carefully designed construction: a three-layer San Mai blade with a cutting core made from VG-10 steel with a hardness of approximately 60 HRC. The 90 mm blade length and 90 g weight give the knife an agile character for precise work.

The pink G-10 handle has a softly rounded oval profile, not an octagonal shape. The metal end cap is decorated with the Japanese character 侍, meaning samurai. It is a small detail that, together with the shimmering blade, gives the knife its distinctive character.

What is the Paring 90 mm best suited for?

Three-layer San Mai blade with VG-10 core

The term San Mai refers to a three-layer construction. At the centre of the blade is a cutting core made from VG-10 steel, which forms the actual edge. It is supported on both sides by outer layers of steel. The result is a blade that combines a fine edge with a practical layered construction.

The core hardness of approximately 60 HRC helps the edge retain its cutting properties when used correctly. However, cutting feel is not determined by hardness alone – blade shape, grind and regular care also play an important role.

Diamond Flash: a blade that plays with light

The special Diamond Flash surface treatment creates a subtly shimmering effect on the blade. As the viewing angle changes, small reflections appear on the surface, contrasting with the pink handle.

The look is complemented by a stonewashed finish, which gives the blade a more matte and lightly textured character. The surface treatment is primarily a distinctive design feature; sharpness comes from the cutting core and the carefully finished edge.

Pink oval G-10 handle

The handle has a rounded oval profile without pronounced edges. It feels comfortable during detailed work and makes it easy to adjust finger position depending on whether you are peeling, coring or trimming an ingredient.

G-10 is a strong composite material that is dimensionally stable and reacts less to normal changes in humidity than untreated natural wood. The pink design gives this practical kitchen tool an unmistakable appearance.

How to care for the knife

• Cut on a wooden or suitable synthetic cutting board, not on glass or stone.
• After use, wash the knife by hand and dry it immediately. Do not put it in the dishwasher.
• Do not use it on bones, frozen food or for prying; avoid twisting the edge in the ingredient.
• When storing the knife, protect the edge from contact with other metal objects.
• Restore sharpness gently using a suitable sharpening stone.
