TODCR301: Dicer 3 Paring Knife

TOPS Knives

Now a tradition at TOPS Knives, an employee design contest takes place each year. TOPS asks its employees to design a knife for specific use with some required specs. In 2016, it was a hatchet. In 2017, it was a chef’s knife. And that is how the Dicers were born.

Since you can’t have just one knife in the kitchen, the Dicer 3 Paring knife was the obvious 2nd choice for the Dicer series of knives. The two most used kitchen knives almost anywhere are the chef’s knife and the paring knife. The Dicer 3 has a 3.5” cutting edge with an aggressive pointed tip. It is also made of CPM S35VN steel to provide a quality knife to last a lifetime. The sandwiched Micarta and G10 handle is patterned after the Dicer 8 with the same contouring for maximum comfort while using the knife. The Dicer 3 and Dicer 8 make a great choice if you’re interested in upgrading your current kitchen set.

Knife Center has an excellent selection of kitchen knives, kitchen accessories, cutlery, and kitchen gadgets.

Pros: Material Quality, Overall Quality, Construction
Cons: None
So much more than a kitchen knife
Sure, it will do a fine job in your home kitchen but with it’s good steel, and superb handle it’s ready for much more. I’ve been looking for a food-prep-focused outdoors knife for camping, tailgating and backyard bbq and this fits that bill. Whereas many fixed blade knives of similar size go for a thicker steel, this is closer to what you find on 3.5” folders. So it’s perfectly capable of doing anything you would do with that sort of knife but with the added stability and better handle of a fixed blade.

I like this knife so much it just makes me mad
I have a bunch of Tops, Lionsteel, a Bradford Guardian, Smith and Sons, and more, all bought in the pursuit of a pocketable fixed blade that was as easy to carry, robust, excellent to grip, etc. as this thing is. The knife is the perfect length for EDC, excellent blade geometry, great steel, great looks, excellent handle shape, materials and colors... this is pretty much the top EDC fixed blade in my collection. Haven't beat on it yet, but I am sure it is Tops tough too.I put an Ulticlip 3.3 on my sheath and once in the pocket, it is easy to forget the knife is even there. Fits great even in relatively shallow pockets and draws easily enough to use it with lighter weight pants.Only gripe is the edge is not as clean as I'd like, almost micro-serrated, but it still slices through thin paper with out snagging or tearing.

Great blade, bad handles, horrid sheath
I'd rate this knife as "excellent" if not for the absolutely HORRIBLE sheath and a careless, visibly bad finish of the handles... The full tang construction is solid, sure, however, the handles seam cheap and poorly thought out... The sheath deserves its own special place in the Great Book of Big Mistakes: this is an expensive knife, how could they give it such a poor, cheap sheath? Could have made it out of leather or nylon but they went with kydex and it's really sad because it screams "cheap" and also "no!!!".
