That's a very logical word if you know what a paring knife is
- ghaff 4y agoIt's a logical word (and, as I recall, I eventually went with it) in the sense of someone or something that pares. https://www.thefreedictionary.com/parer https://www.thefreedictionary.com/parer But it's fair to say that it's not especially common in the US. Someone would normally say they were going to the manicurist or ask you to hand them the paring knife--though, at least in the latter case, they might intuit the meaning from context.
