Hello everyone! I have seen this paring knife in the link and as I really like their products think this could be a good buy. And its very inexpensive. I like that its just flat and of a good material. What do you think? Does someone bought this knife and has an opinion to share?
Thank you very much!

I have the non -curved version of this knife. It arrived insanely sharp, and is a delight to use. I am very new to the hobby and it eventually became dull despite persistent strooping. I recently took it to some diamond plates to sharpen thanks to the masterclass videos and it's back to being insanely sharp. I highly recommend this knife. at this price point the only other knife I consider worth looking at is : https://www.artisanleathersupply.com/collections/all-tools-1/products/leather-paring-knife
this knife is also really good but much thinner (and i've been told softer) metal.
@kilian I wish there was a context shot with the blade in hand or even a video demo, but for a flat bar style skiving knife I like a slightly larger length than 180mm.
A longer length means you can get your hand further back on shallow skives without having to skive off the edge of the stone.
