A knife for nature-loving foodies!

This pocket knife is used for cutting and peeling chestnuts, as well as peeling garlic or quickly removing stones and pits from fruit by making an incision. It is ideal for preparing jams and tarts Its small size means it fits easily into your pocket and its short, pointed and curved 4 cm blade is easier to handle than a long blade. Perfect as a useful and practical gift idea. This knife can be personalised.
