A small blade for precise work. Nogent*** micro-serrated paring knives support the fruit, vegetables and preparations that return every day. Their Affidenté® edge cuts through skin and flesh without crushing, with no sharpening required. From a morning apple to tomatoes for supper, choose the blade length and handle that feel at home in your hand and in your everyday kitchen routine.

A discreet edge and a clean cut

Four teeth per millimetre, almost invisible to the naked eye: Affidenté® micro-serrations are different from a conventional serrated edge. They cut into the ingredient at first contact and pass through without tearing the flesh. With a tomato or ripe fruit, the fine teeth make a visible difference to the result. Neat pieces are ready for a salad or for sharing. The knife supports the task without asking you to change your whole approach to preparation.

XC50CrMoV15 stainless steel is worked in our Biesles workshops. After sharpening, the micro-serrations are applied by hand. This process gives Affidenté® paring knives an edge that needs no sharpening. The short blade remains useful for precise tasks. It is not simply a shortened large knife: it is a tool chosen for fruit, vegetables and small preparations where the hand needs to stay close to the work and guide each cut.

Find the right length and feel

The 9 cm blade suits small and medium-sized fruit and vegetables. The 11 cm version provides more length for larger ingredients. Straight-profile blades of 6.5 cm in Confort and 8 cm in Naturel support precise, straight cuts. The Confort family also includes an 8 cm paring knife. Compare the profiles with your usual preparations in mind: a few centimetres can change how the task feels and which knife you reach for first.

For the handle, Affidenté® Naturel offers PEFC-certified French wild cherry wood. Affidenté® Confort brings polypropylene and dishwasher-safe care. Wooden versions are washed by hand. Choose the feel and routine that suit you, and the knife you will enjoy returning to. A micro-serrated peeler can complement preparation of soft fruit and vegetables. The paring knife then takes over for trimming, cutting and shaping the ingredients. Nothing complicated: just the tools to help bring a meal to the table.
