Amazon.com Review
The blade size and excellent handle on this paring knife make it a premier small tool for the kitchen. It's sharp, strong, and durable, and, while it's designed for small jobs, can handle some larger ones too. It's especially great for tasks that require repetitive motion. The Good Grips line features durable, non-slip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro
Product Description
Comfortable and easy to use, this fine edge knife is perfect for paring with its sharp, tapered stainless steel blade. The soft, non-slip handle is shaped to allow you to grip it in the curl of your fingers, while keeping your hand comfortable. The non-slip grips means that your paring knife won't slip out of your hand, even when wet. Dishwasher safe.

I Like It November 12, 2009
Shirley Barnes
Have searched all over for a knife like this. I have arthritis and it is very difficult for me to hold things in my hand. I love the handle on this item I can finally go back to peeling apples, potatoes, etc. I recommend this item for anyone with arthritis.
 a handy everyday basic October 12, 2009
Cheryl DC (Washington, DC)
I own three of these knives and use them daily. I think it's fair to consider myself an experienced home chef and I do also own several very good pieces of cutlery, including some Wusthof, Global, and Shun.
I have long hands (no arthritis) and enjoy the grip of these handles and find myself grabbing them all the time for paring, peeling, and various other small knife-work kinds of tasks. I particularly like that the handle doesn't get slippery when I'm trimming vegetables as I rinse them.
The main criticism I have about the knives is also something that I've personally found to be easily fixed. Several people have commented about the quickly dulling edge - true, but using a regular old honing steel on it every few months or so (as all well-used knives need from time to time to stay in top condition) keeps them perfectly sharp and maintained.
So far I've really liked all of the Good Grips equipment I've tried (paring knives, bread knife, veg peeler, zester, and can opener) except for the chef's knife - not enough heft for my taste.
Great knife January 15, 2009
L. Elkins (Arkansas)
Great for all sorts of quick cutting jobs. I own one and have given one as part of a gift. This will be a great addition to your kitchen!
Very Handy. August 30, 2008
Beowulf (California)
We like this so much after several years use we wanted to have two of them and bought another. It is perfect for smaller hands and very ergonomic. We use them both pretty much every day.
Perfect Paring Knife August 3, 2008
R. Crane (Washington, DC United States)
Love this knife. It is so easy to hold, particularly if you have any arthritic or other problems. It is also great for small hands. It does not slip and cuts beautifully. This is my second one: the last one was accidently damaged by someone who used it to pry something and bent it. It is meant for cutting food,not cement.
