INTRODUCING: THE CUTBANK PARING KNIFE Media
Published: 4 months ago
Your new Kitchen Sidekick.
We've been dreaming of creating a general-use cooking knife that's less aggressive than the rest of MKC's lineup. Something compact, thin, light, and ergonomic, but just as useful as our other MKC blades. And that dream has finally come to life with the MKC Cutbank Paring Knife.
This essential fine-cutting blade is perfect for hunters, outdoorsmen, and home chefs alike. Whether you're processing herbs and spices, vegetables, or meat, the Cutbank is your go-to tool. It also fits right in with the rest of the MKC Culinary line, making it a must-have addition to your kitchen arsenal.
DESIGNED FOR FOOD PREP ANYWHERE
We've crafted the Cutbank with food prep in mind, whether you're in your home kitchen or at your campsite. The finger choil allows your front knuckles to clear the cutting board, while the downward-pointing tip keeps you safe and in control. At around 4 inches, it's slightly longer than a traditional paring knife, making it a true multi-purpose food prep rockstar.
THIN, DELICATE, AND PRECISE
As one of our thinnest blades, the Cutbank is delicate enough to handle highly precise tasks, yet long enough to chop larger quantities of food with ease. It's your ultimate tool for small, surgical slices.
We've taken care to eliminate any hot spots in the handle, ensuring comfortable use with any grip — even a pinch grip at the blade. With zero hotspots and zero sharp corners, this knife will stay comfortable in your hand whether you’re chopping a few vegetables or using it for long prep sessions.
CUSTOM HARDWARE FOR THE PERFECT HANDLE
We've gone the extra mile with the handle, designing custom hardware not used in any of our other blades. The result? A thin, ergonomic handle that you'll love using. The Cutbank features our signature flared handle with a rounded-out choil, allowing you to choke up on the grip for ultimate control.
A BLADE THAT ROCKS
The Cutbank’s blade resembles a modified Wharncliffe, with a slight belly on the blade geometry. This belly provides just the right amount of rocking motion to guide you through your cutting board motions. It's just as thick as our standard Speedgoat knives, with a flat utility grind all around.
G-10 HANDLE AND EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH
Crafted from G-10, the Cutbank’s handle is built for durability, water resistance, ergonomics, and grip… even in wet and slimy conditions. We've also included a Kydex sheath to keep your blade in prime condition when traveling or even when stored in a drawer.
FREE SHARPENING FOR LIFE & BEYOND
Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.
MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge. While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance. Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.
