Product Description
Craftsmanship & Specifications
Small blade. Serious precision.
The Dark Tessellation Series 13cm Paring Knife is built for the detailed jobs where a full-size chef knife is simply too much. With a 45-layer Damascus blade and AUS-10 core, this compact knife is designed for controlled cutting, trimming, and everyday detail work.
Finished with a distinctive dark blue honeycomb-style resin handle, it brings the same bold Tessellation character to a knife designed for the finer jobs in the kitchen.
What Is This Knife For?
A paring knife is a compact precision knife for smaller ingredients and detailed preparation. The 13cm blade gives you close control when peeling, trimming, shaping, and making smaller cuts that are easier to manage with a short blade.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tasks is a 13 cm petty/paring knife best suited for?
AUS-10 steel provides excellent edge retention, allowing the petty knife to stay razor-sharp for fine, delicate cuts. The Damascus layering reduces drag, helping the blade glide cleanly through small produce and herbs without crushing them—an essential feature for precision work.

Is the resin handle comfortable for users with smaller hands?
Yes. The compact rounded-rectangle handle provides a secure grip for all hand sizes. Its ergonomic profile supports a pinch grip comfortably, giving users precise control during meticulous tasks. The resin material also offers moisture resistance, making it safe and stable even when hands are slightly wet.
Can this petty knife replace a standard paring knife in the kitchen?
Absolutely. This 13 cm petty knife offers all the functionality of a paring knife but with added versatility thanks to its longer blade. It can perform everyday peeling and trimming while also handling slightly larger tasks like small slicing jobs, making it a more multi-purpose option for modern kitchens.
What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?
Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.
We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.
Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?
We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.
Is this knife dishwasher-safe?
We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.
How should I sharpen this knife?
You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.
What’s the best way to store this knife?
Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
