Introducing the Plateau Red Cedar Paring/Utility Knife #403 by GreBec Knives — a beautifully handcrafted kitchen knife designed for precision, balance, and everyday durability. This 9 3/8” paring/utility knife features a 4 3/4” brushed drop point blade forged from 3/32” 1095 high carbon steel, offering a razor-sharp edge, excellent edge retention, and confident control for detailed prep work.
The slightly thicker 3/32″ stock gives this knife a bit more heft than a traditional paring knife, making it especially capable for slicing, trimming, peeling, and other fine kitchen tasks where control and strength matter.

Greg harvested and stabilized the Florida Red Cedar handle, secured with classic brass pins for a comfortable, reliable grip that stands up to daily use. As part of our Florida Woods Series, the blade proudly bears a State of Florida etch, celebrating our Sunshine State roots and commitment to local materials and craftsmanship. Learn more about this legacy on our Florida Woods Series page.

As part of our signature Plateau design, this larger paring/utility knife was originally created as part of a custom set for a client with larger hands. The design features consistent 3/32″ steel throughout for added durability and a solid, confidence-inspiring feel. Greg has since crafted matching carving, chef, santoku, and fillet knives in this same style. If you’re interested in a full matching set, partial set, or a similar custom kitchen prep knife tailored to your needs, please reach out — we’d love to help bring your vision to life.

Why choose the Red Cedar Paring/Utility Knife

Perfect for both professional chefs and passionate home cooks, the Red Cedar Paring/Utility Knife #403 blends traditional hand-forged craftsmanship with practical modern design — making it an heirloom-quality tool you’ll reach for every day.

Care and Maintenance

These blades are high-carbon steel, not stainless.  This means they will naturally develop a dark patina over time and can rust if left wet.

To keep your knife performing and looking its best:

  • Hand-wash promptly after use and dry completely
  • Apply a light coat of food-safe oil or our recommended Wiseman Axe & Knife Wax
  • Store in a dry environment
