Victorinox Fibrox 4 eva.
Why do you need a thicker blade on a paring knife? It’s literally for delicate little jobs like peeling garlic.
hollow__legs-
I assume it's more the lack of rigidity.
We used to have 2 pairing knives, one super cheap with quite a flexible blad, the other stiffer with more of a spine.
Unfortunately the stiffer ones handle feel apart. But I liked having both depending on what I was doing. You could argue that the stiffer one was closer to a utility knife I guess.

Wut? Put garlic on the chopping board and lightly bash it, cut off the root end and skin releases.
Never had to peel garlic.

Cheers all.
The Opinel looks very similar to the Victorinox with the thin blade so think I'll pass on that and Wusthof looks pretty out of budget.
I seem to remember there's a Nisbets in Soho so may have a look in there (for something admittedly cheaper than the linked one).
