What is the purpose of a paring knife with a blade that curves in?
My knife block came with this knife. It was labeled a paring knife, but since the blade is curved the opposite direction of most paring knifes, it really doesn’t function the same way. I keep trying to figure out why I would need a knife that curves that direction, but I haven’t come up with anything. What can this knife do that other knives cannot?
