Branch Paring
This is Andersson Copra’s paring knife model in Japanese style with wa handle and lightweight stick-tang construction. In Swedish 13C26 Sandvik stainless steel, the blade is light and sharp with 115mm (4.5") of edge, perfect for detail oriented tasks. The handle is made from reclaimed bog oak from a 13th-century ship deck, and the blade is hand-formed on a water-cooled grinder and individually hardened to 62-63 HRC. This versatile handmade paring knife is perfect for delicate peeling and light prep work. With 50/50 geometry, the blade has a slightly convex grind that tapers toward the tip. This knife makes a beautiful set with the larger Branch Chef and Branch Santoku and comes with a wooden transport case made from reclaimed furniture.
