A paring knife is a small general purpose knife used mainly for shaping and trimming food. It is important that any knives are kept sharp, as blunt knives require more force to use, actually increasing the likelihood of injury (cuts from a sharp knife heal more quickly than those from a blunt one). A knife sharpener can be used to sharpen knives.
